LAST WILL AND TESTAME���VT � �' �
I, ETHEL I. SNYDER, of West Pennsboro Township, Cumberland County,
Pennsylvania, being of sound mind, disposing memory and full legal age, do hereby make,
publish and declare this to be my Last Will and Testament, hereby revoking all Wills and
Codicils heretofore made by me.
L I direct my Co-Executrices or Substitute Executrix to pay all of my debts, funeral and
administrative expenses as soon as convenient after my decease. Furthermore, I direct that all
state, inheritance, succession and other death taxes imposed or payable by reason of my death
and interest and penalties thereon with respect to all property composing of my gross estate for
death tax purposes, whether or not such property passes under this Will, shall be paid by the Co-
Executrices or Substitute Executrix from my estate, and that none of the aforesaid taxes shall
be prorated among those persons or entities named herein or otherwise beneficiaries hereunder.
2. My Co-Executrices or Substitute Executrix may, at their or her discretion,
compromise claims, borrow money, retain property for such length of time as they or she may
deem proper; lease and sell property for such prices, on such terms, at public or private sales, as
they or she may deem proper; and invest estate property and income without restriction to legal
investments unless otherwise provided hereunder.
3. I authorize and empower my Co-Executrices or Substitute Executrix to sell any realty
and/or personalty owned by me at my death and not specifically devised or bequeathed herein, at
public or private sale or sales and to give good and sufficient deeds and/or bills of sale therefor,
in fee simple, as I could do if living. My Co-Executrices or Substitute Executrix are/is
authorized and empowered to engage in any business in which I may be engaged at my death, for
such period of time after my death as seems expedient to said Co-Executrices or Substitute
Executrix.
4. I give, devise and bequeath all of my estate of whatever nature and wherever situate to
my two (2) daughters, DORIS M. LAUGHMAN and SHARON S. BITNER, share and
share alike, the child or children of any deceased daughter taking the share their parent would
have taken if living.
5. I nominate and appoint my daughters, DORIS M. LAUGHMAN and SHARON
S. BITNER,to be the Co-Executrices of this my Last Will and Testament. In the event DORIS
M. LAUGHMAN and SHARON S. BITNER have predeceased me, failed to qualify or are
not able or do not serve for whatever reason, I then appoint my granddaughter, GEORGEANN
(n/m/i) LAUGHMAN, to serve as Substitute Executrix of this my Last Will and Testament,
whereby the Substitute Executrix shall have the same powers as the original Co-Executrices
herein.
6. No person(s) shall benefit hereunder unless such beneficiary shall survive me by sixty
(60) days.
7. No Co-Executrix or Substitute Executrix acting hereunder shall be required to post
bond or enter security in this or any other jurisdiction.
2
8. No beneficiary may assign, anticipate or pledge her interest in any income or principal
held or distributable hereunder, and no beneficiary's creditors may levy, attach or otherwise reach
any such interest.
9. I hereby suggest that my personal representatives retain the services of Irwin &
McKnight, P.C. as attorneys in the settlement of my estate.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and seal this lOth day of
December 2012.
