LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT
I, Russell Smoley, being of sound and disposing mind and memory of and over the age of
eighteen (18) years, do make, publish and declare this to be my last Will, hereby expressly revoking all
Wills and Codicils and writing in the nature thereof heretofore made by me.
FIRST:
I declare that I am a single person. I have two (2) children now living, namely
Jane Barbara Smoley and William R. Smoley. It is my intention that William R. Smoley receive nothing
from my Estate. He is completely estranged from me and deserves none of my bounty.
SECOND: It is my intention by this Will to dispose of all of the property which I may own.
However, I hereby elect not to exercise any power of appointment exercisable by a Will which I now
have or which may hereafter be conferred on me; no provisions of this Will shall be construed as an
exercise in whole or in part of any such power.
THIRD:
I direct that all inheritance and estate taxes, and all expenses related to the
administration of my Estate and of my last illness and funeral be paid out of my Estate by my Executor
as soon as may be conveniently done.
