I, GLORIA M. WILLIAMS, of Mechanicsburg, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania,
being of sound and disposing mind, memory, and understanding, do hereby make, publish, and
declare this to be my Last Will and Testament and hereby revoke all other Wills and Codicils
that I have made, including the Will dated Apri14, 1973.
FIRST: All of my Estate, of whatever nature and wherever situate, I give,
devise, and bequeath, in equal shares, to those of my children who survive me by thirty (30)
� days: my daughter, JODI KAY JOYCE, of Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania; my daughter,
�
4
�' VICKI MAE UPTON, of Lawrenceville, Georgia; and my son, RICHARD ALAN
.�
� WILLIAMS, of Hummelstown, Pennsylvania. Should any of my children fail to survive me
��' by thirty (30) days, but be represented by children then living, these children shall take,per
,� stirpes, the share to which my child would have been entitled if then living.
SECOND: If any portion of my Estate shall be payable to a beneficiary who is less
� than eighteen (18) years of age, my Executor may pay such share to my daughter, JODI KAY
JOYCE, as custodian for said minor, who shall deposit such share in the minor's name in a
Uniform Gift to Minors' Act account in a savings institution of the Executor's choosing,
payable to the minor at majority. In the event of the renunciation, death, resignation, or
inability of any of my daughter to act for whatever reason in this capacity, then I nominate,
constitute, and appoint my other daughter, VICKI MAE UPTON, as custodian. In the event of
� , ,
the renunciation, death, resignation, or inability of my other daughter to act for whatever
reason in this capacity, then I nominate, constitute, and appoint my son, RICHARD ALAN
WILLIAMS, as custodian.
THIRD: All interests of any beneficiary in the income or principal of this Estate,
while undistributed and in the possession of my Executor, even though vested and
distributable, shall not be subject to attachment, execution or sequestration for any debt,
contract, obligation or liability of any beneficiary and, furthermore, shall not be subject to
pledge, assignment, conveyance, or anticipation.
FOURTH: All inheritance, estate, and succession taxes (including interest and any
penalties thereon) payable by reason of my death shall be paid out of and be charged generally
against the principal of my residuary estate, without apportionment or right reimbursement
�,_
from any person. In the event that a substantial portion, as determined in the sole and absolute
�
`� judgment and discretion of my Executor, of the non-probate assets such as an annuity or
� mutual funds are directed to be paid to a beneficiary or beneficiaries, so that the taxes referred
�
�.
a to herein would be paid out of the probate residue passing to the beneficiary or beneficiaries of
this will (whether or not the same as the beneficiary or beneficiaries under the non-probate
� � assets), my Executor, in the Executor's sole and absolute judgment and discretion, shall have
the right to allocate the full or partial payment of the taxes to the beneficiary or beneficiaries of
the non-probate assets.
FIFTH: In addition to all rights and powers conferred by law, I authorize and
empower my Executor and his successors, in his absolute discretion and without necessity of
obtaining court approval:
A. To buy investments at a premium or discount.
B. To hold property unregistered or in the name of a nominee.
C. To give proxies, both ministerial and discretionary.
D. To compromise claims.
E. To join any merger, consolidation, reorganization, voting trust
plan, or any other concerted action of security holders and to delegate discretionary duties with
respectthereto.
F. To lend to, and buy from, my estate.
G. To borrow and to pledge real and personal property as security therefor.
H. To sell at public or private sale for cash or credit or partly for each, to
exchange, or to lease for any period of time, any real or personal property, and to give options
� for sales, exchanges, or leases.
'' I. To exercise any option permitted by law which he believes to be
� advantageous from the viewpoint of overall tax reductions, including, without limitation of the
�
y foregoing, power and authority to claim administration or other expenses either as income tax
�
� deductions or inheritance or estate tax deductions, without regard to whether they were paid
,��--�,, from principal or income and without requiring adjustments between principal and income for
� /
any resulting effect on income or estate taxes, and a deduction of such expenses for income tax
purposes shall be given effect in computing the respective shares of all persons interested in
my estate set forth herein, even though the effect is to increase the share of one beneficiary or
class of beneficiaries hereunder at the expense of another; and to make such adjustments, if
any, between beneficiaries with respect thereto as he shall deem appropriate in view of the
nature of the transaction and the amounts involved.
J. To distribute in cash or in kind or partly in each.
� , , .
The powers granted hereunder shall be exercisable with respect to all real and personal
property, including, but not limited to, income and principal held for minors or disabled
beneficiaries at any time, until the actual distribution of all property. All powers, authorities
and discretion granted here shall be in addition to those granted by law and shall be exercisable
without leave of court. However, nothing herein shall be interpreted or construed to
encourage, authorize, empower, or permit the Executor to act or cause anyone to act in a
manner contrary to or inconsistent with accepted standards of portfolio diversification and risk
management.
SIXTH: I nominate, constitute, and appoint all three of my children, JODI KAY
JOYCE, VICKI MAE UPTON, and RICHARD ALAN WILLIAMS, as Co-Executors of this,
my Last Will and Testament. In the event of the renunciation, death, resignation, or inability
of any of my children to act for whatever reason in this capacity, then I nominate, constitute,
and appoint the other children to act as Co-Executors or as sole Executor as the case may be.
I direct that no representative named above shall be required to post security for the
faithful performance of his/her duties in any jurisdiction insofar as I am able by law to relieve
him/her of such obligation. Any of my representatives shall be entitled to reasonable
compensation for the performance of the duties set forth here.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and seal this �`' day of
�b,� , 2004, on this, the fourth of four typewritten pages. I have also signed the
left-hand margin of the first three of these pages for purposes of identification only.
