LAST WILL AND TEST AMENT
OF
EMMA F. WEIMER
I, EMMA F. WEIMER, widow, of 5-E Todd Circle in the Borough of Carlisle,
Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, being of sound and disposing mind, memory and
understanding, do hereby make, publish and declare this as and for my Last Will and Testament
hereby revoking and making void any and all Wills by me at any time heretofore made.
I. I direct my hereinafter named Executor to pay all of my just debts including any and all
inheritance and estate taxes payable on account of my death regardless of whether the assets giving
rise to such taxes are includable in my probate estate or not. I direct that my funeral services be
conducted by Hoffman-Roth Funeral Home, 219 North Hanover Street, Carlisle, Pennsylvania, in
accordance with arrangements made by me and prepaid by me.
2. I give and bequeath to my son, Robert E. Weimer, his heirs and assigns, all articles of
tangible personal property which I may own at the time of my death, including automobiles,
household goods and furnishings, etc., provided he shall survive me by a period of ninety (90)
days, but should he fail to so survive me then to my grandson, David G. Weimer, his heirs and
assigns, provided he shall survive me by a period of ninety (90) days.
3. All of the rest, residue and remainder of my estate, real, personal and mixed, and
wheresoever the same may be situate, I give, devise and bequeath as follows:
a) Five (5%) percentto the Council of St. Paul's Evangelical Lutheran Church, 201

my husband, David E. Weimer, and me, the selection of which shall be made by said Council in
consultation with my son, Robert E. Weimer.
b) Five (5%) to the Council of St. Peter's Lutheran Church, sometimes known as
Upper Frankford Lutheran Church and sometimes locally known as the "Brick Church", with
present mailing address of Box 203, R. D. #4, Newville, Pennsylvania 17241, to be used to
provide a suitable memorial to my husband, David E. Weimer, and me, the selection of which
shall be made by said Council in consultation with my son, Robert E. Weimer.
c) Thirty (30%) percent to my grandson, David G. Weimer, his heirs and assigns,
provided he shall survive me by a period of ninety (90) days, but should he fail to so survive me
then to such of his legitimate issue, their heirs and assigns, as shall survive me by a period of
ninety (90) days and if there be no such issue then to his parents, their heirs and assigns, provided
at least one of them shall survive me by a period of ninety (90) days.
d) Sixty (60%) percent to my son, Robert E. Weimer, his heirs and assigns, provided
he shall survive me by a period of ninety (90) days, but should he fail to so survive me, then to
my grandson, Robert E. Weimer, his heirs and assigns, provided he shall survive me by a period
of ninety (90) days, but should both of them fail to so survive me, then to such of the legitimate
issue of RobertE. Weimer, their heirs and assigns, as shall survive me by a period of ninety (90)
days, per stirpes.
If neither my son, Robert E. Weimer, nor my grandson, David G. Weimer, nor any
legitimate issue of my grandson, David G. Weimer, shall survive me by a period of ninety (90)
days, then the amounts which would have been paid to them shall be distributed as follows:
I) Fifty (50%) percent to the Council of St. Paul's Evangelical Lutheran Church,
