I, JOHN PATRICK POWERS A/K/ A JOHN P. POWERS A/K/ A JOHN
EDWARD POWERS, of 50 Weiss Avenue, Flourtown, Pennsylvania 19031,
,
being of sound mind, memory and understanding, do hereby make,
publish and declare this as and for my Last Will and Testament,
hereby revoking and making null and void any and all Wills and
Testaments or Writings in the nature thereof by me at any time
heretofore made.
FIRST:
I order and direct that all my just debts,
expenses of my last illness and funeral expenses be paid out of my
Estate, as soon after my death as may be convenient.
SECOND:
I direct the payment of the cost of the perpetual
care and maintenance of the burial plot in which I shall be buried
should arrangements for the same not have been concluded and paid
for at the time of my death.
THIRD :
All my personal effects, clothing, furniture,
shings, jewelry, automobile(s), other tangible property of
every kind, and all policies of insurance thereon, I give in

T'
..........

provision authorizing reference to such a separate memorandum does
not necessarily mean that such a memorandum has been made by me or
that such a memorandum will be in existence at the time of my
death. If any such memorandum fails to dispose of all personal
property or if a memorandum is not in existence at my death, any
items not so disposed of by memorandum shall be sold by my
Executrix and the proceeds added to my residuary estate.
FOURTH: I give and bequeath the sum of Ten Thousand
($10,000.00) Dollars to each of my following named Grandchildren:
KRISTINE L. BOVA; MICHAEL J. BOVA; and MATTHEW C. BOVA.
FIFTH: All the rest, residue and remainder of my Estate,
real and personal, of whatsoever nature and wheresoever situate, I
and bequeath to my Daughter, JOANNE M. BOVA, per
stirpes.
SIXTH: I direct that all property and shares of my
Estate given to any person under Twenty-two (22) years of age shall
be held IN TRUST for such person by my Trustee hereinafter named.
income and principal of any such Trust shall be distributed at
time and in such amounts as my Trustee, in her sole
discretion, shall consider advisable, after considering all sources
of income available to such person, solely for the education of
such person. Education expenditures may include, in addition to
2
~. :'
normal education expenditures, board and tuition in a preparatory
school, vocational school, college or professional or graduate
school.
My Trustee is under no obligation to make equal
distribution among such persons.
As each such person shall
successively attain Twenty-two (22) years of age, each shall
be entitled to withdraw his/her share of both principal and
accumulated income.
SEVENTH:
I order and direct that all legacies and all
shares or interest in my Estate, whether principal or income, while
in the hands of my Executrix, shall not be subject to attachment,
execution or sequestration for any debts, contract, obligation or
liability of any legatee or beneficiary, and shall not be subject
to pledge, assignment, conveyance or anticipation; and the personal
receipt by such legatee or beneficiary shall be the sufficient and
only discharge of my Executrix.
EIGHTH:
In the absolute discretion of my Executrix, all
inheritance and succession taxes on property passing under
Will, or in any other manner, may be paid immediately or
postponed in payment with respect to future or remainder
interests until the time possession thereof accrues to the
beneficiary. All such taxes shall be paid out of the principal of
my residuary estate just as if they were my debts, and none of
these taxes shall be charged against any beneficiary.

such prices and upon such terms or conditions as they deem proper;
