whatsoever, which may be payable by reason of my death, shall be paid
t of the principal of my estate as the same can conveniently be done.
SECOND: I give, devise and bequeath all the rest, residue
and remainder of my estate of whatever nature and wherever situate,
including any property over which I hold power of appointment and
ogether with any insurance policies thereon, as follows:
(a) Twenty percent (20 %) thereof unto my daughter, JUDY
A. FRY, of Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, provided that should JUDY A.
FRY predecease me, I give and bequeath her share unto her issue, share
~nd share alike, and if there be a failure of same, then I give and bequeath
her share unto my surviving children and grandchildren as named herein,
share and share alike; and
(b) Twenty percent (20%) thereof unto my daughter, LORI A.
TRACE, of Mechanicsburg, provided that should LORI A. TRACE
~
predecease me, I give and bequeath her share unto her children, CHRIS-
TOPHER R. TRACE and MATTHEW E. TRACE, share and share alike;
and
(c) Twenty percent (20 %) thereof unto my son, LARRY W.
BILLER, provided that should LARRY W. BILLER predecease me, I

THIRD: Should any of my grandchildren not have attained

to my hereinafter named Trustee, IN SEPARATE TRUSTS, to hold,
nage, invest and reinvest the shares so received, and to use and apply
from time to time such portion of income and principal for such grand-
child's education (including college, trade school or other similar training
or education), support and welfare as my Trustee, in her sole discretion,
deems advisable. My Trustee may make the payments for the support and
maintenance of my grandchild directly to said grandchild or to such
grandchild's Guardian, as required. Any payments made by my Trustee
pursuant hereto shall be made without further responsibility to the said
grandchild, or to any person taking care of my grandchild. The Trustee, in

income or principal of the within Trust to my grandchild, shall take into

Any income or principal not so applied shall be distributed to each
grandchild when such grandchild attains the age of eighteen (18) years.
FOURTH: In addition to all powers granted to them by law
and by other provisions of this Will, I give the fiduciaries acting hereunder
the following powers, applicable to all property, exercisable without court
approval and effective until actual distribution of all property:
(A) To sell at public or private sale, or to lease, for any period
of time, any real or personal property and to give options for sales, ex-
c anges or leases, for such prices and upon such terms (including credit,
with or without security) or conditions as are deemed proper. This
includes the power to give legally sufficient instruments for transfer of the
property and to receive the proceeds of any disposition.
(B) To partition, subdivide, or improve real estate and to
enter into agreements concerning the partition, subdivision, improvement,
zoning or management of real estate and to impose or extinguish restric-
tions on real estate.
(C) To compromise any claim or controversy and to abandon
any property which is of little or no value.
(0) To invest in all forms of property, including stocks,
common trust funds and mortgage investment funds, without restriction to
4
investments authorized for Pennsylvania fiduciaries, as are deemed proper,
without regard to any principle of diversification, risk or productivity.
(E) To exercise any option, right or privilege granted in
insurance policies or in other investments.
(F) To exercise any election or privilege given by the Federal
and other tax laws, including, but not necessarily being limited to, personal
income, gift and estate or inheritance tax laws.
(G) To make distributions to my herein named beneficiaries
in cash or in kind or partly in each.
(H) To borrow money from themselves or others in order to
ay debts, taxes, or estate or trust administration expenses, to protect or
improve any property held under my will, and for investment purposes.

ment plan (pension plan, profit sharing plan, employee stock ownership
plan, or any other type of qualified plan) to the extent provided for by the
plan or the law.
