I, A. Jean Laidig, of Green Ridge Village, ��p ��i�Sp�i�

;�w
� �
memory and understanding, do hereby declare this to be my will,
hereby revoking any and all former wills and codicils thereto by me
heretofore made.
I.
, I direct that all my just debts and funeral expenses,
including all expenses of my last illness, shall be paid from my
estate as soon as practicable after my decease as a part of the
expense of the administration of my estate.
�
�� I I.
I give, devise and bequeath the residue of my estate of every
nature and wherever situate to my son, Reginald B. Laidig, and my
granddaughter, Elizabeth Laidig, in equal shares, provided that the
share of any beneficiary who predeceases me or dies on or before
the thirtieth day following my death shall be distributed to said
beneficiary' s issue, per stirpes, living on the thirty-first day
following my death, and in default of any such then-living issue,
such share shall be added to the share or shares of my other then-
���f 11111111� ,
living beneficiary.
III.
In the event that anyone entitled to a share of my estate
shall be under the age of thirty years at the time for distribution
to such beneficiary, I constitute and appoint Reginald B. Laidig as
trustee of any property which passes either under this will or
otherwise to said beneficiar�. Should Reginald B. Laidig
predecease me, fail to qualify or cease to act, I appoint the
Orrstown Bank with offices in Shippensburg, Pennsylvania, as
trustee of any property which passes either under this will or
. otherwise to said beneficiary. Said trustee shall in the trustee' s
� sole discretion and without order of court, use principal as well
� as income from time to time as may appear to be necessary for the
beneficiary' s welfare, comfort, medical care, recreation, support
,_ and education, without responsibility to the beneficiary or to any
� person taking care of the beneficiary; and the remaining balance in
the hands of said trustee shall be distributed to said beneficiary
when the beneficiary attains the age of thirty years . If such
beneficiary dies prior to attaining the age of thirty years, said
trustee is authorized in the trustee' s discretion to pay part or
all of the beneficiary' s funeral expenses and the remaining balance
in the hands of said trustee shall be distributed to the
beneficiary' s personal representative. In the event the funds held
by the trustee for any beneficiary become in the opinion of the
Page 2
,�"'�ill ll',dII 11A. ,
trustee too small for proper and efficient administration, the
trustee, in the trustee' s sole discretion, may deposit such funds
in a savings account in the name of the beneficiary.
IV.
Any fiduciary under this will shall have the following powers
in addition to those vested in them by law and by other provisions
of my will applicable to all property whether principal or income,
including property held for minors, exercisable without Court
approval, and effective until actual distribution of all property:
A. To retain any and all of the assets of my estate, real or
, personal, without regard to any principle of
�
diversification of risk.
B. To invest in all forms of property including stock,
common trust funds and mortgage investment funds without
restriction to investments authorized for Pennsylvania
fiduciaries as they deem proper, without regard to any
� principle of diversification of risk.
C. To sell at public or private sale, to exchange or to
lease for any period of time any real or personal
property and to give options for sales, exchanges or
leases, for such prices and upon such terms or conditions
as they deem proper.
D. To allocate receipts and expenses to principal or income
or partly to each as they from time to time think proper.
Page 3

E. To compromise any claim or controversy.
F. To distribute in cash or in kind or partly in each.
G. To hold property in their names without designation of
any fiduciary capacity or in the name of a nominee or
unregistered.
V.

my death of whatever nature and by whatever jurisdiction imposed,
shall be paid from my residuary estate as a part of the expense of
.� the administration of my estate.
VI.
I appoint Reginald B. Laidig, my son, as executor of this my
will. Should my son predecease me, fail to qualify or cease to
� act, I appoint the Orrstown Bank with offices in Shippensburg,
Pennsylvania, as executor of this my will .

jurisdiction.
