LAST WILL AND TEST AMENT

Pennsboro Township, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, being of sound mind and disposing inrent, do
, .

hereby make, publish and declare this to be my Last Will and Testament, hereby revoking alJ. Wi.1l~ and
Codicils at anytime heretofore made by me.

C:"
)
: 'I
ITEM I
Ii
I order and direct my Executrix, hereinafter named, to pay all of my debts and expenses involved
or connected with my funeral and the administration of my estate as soon after my death as is reasonably
possible. However, my Executrix need not accelerate and pay those unmatured obligations which, in
her opinion, might be proper and more advantageous to retain or renew and pay as they become due and
payable. Should any real property pass under my Will, it shall pass subject to any mortgage or lien
thereon.
ITEM II
I direct my Executrix to provide for a traditional funeral service, with burial in Cumberland
Valley Memorial Gardens.
ITEM III
I give, devise and bequeath all of the remainder of my estate, real or personal, and my property
of every kind and description (including lapsed legacies and devises), wherever situate and whether
acquired before or after the execution of this Will, to my wife, ANNA L. HOCKENBERRY. If my
said wife shall not survive me, then I order and direct that all of the remainder of my property, to
Page 1 of 4
fire J-I
include my residence and any vehicles, be sold at public or private sale and the proceeds therefrom be
divided in equal shares among our six children; DARLENE L. CORNMAN, RODNEY R.
HOCKENBERRY, JOAN L. ZNANEICKI, BARRY L. HOCKENBERRY, ROBIN W. SHANK and
DA WN D. PALMER, per stirpes.
ITEM IV
.
In the event that my wife, ANNA L. HOCKENBERRY, and I should die simultaneously or
under circumstances as to render it impossible to determine who predeceased the other, or within thirty
(30) days of each other as the result of a common accident, my wife shall be deemed to have survived
me.
ITEM V
I hereby nominate, constitute and appoint as Executrix of this my Last Will and Testament my
wife, ANNA L. HOCKENBERRY, and direct that she shall serve without requirement of bond or
surety. By way of illustration and not of limitation and in addition to any inherent, implied or statutory
powers granted to executors generally, my Executrix is specifically authorized to and empowered with
respect to any property, real or personal, at any time held under any provision of this my Will, to sell
at public or private sale, allot, allocate between principal and income, assign, borrow, buy, care for,
collect, compromise claims, contract with respect to, convey, convert, deal with, dispose of, enter into,
exchange, hold, improve, invest, lease, manage, mortgage, grant and exercise options with respect to,
take possession of, pledge, receive, release, repair, sue for, to make distributions in cash or in kind or
partly in each without regard to the income tax basis of such asset, and in general to exercise all of the
powers in the management of my Estate which any individual would exercise in the management of
similar property owned in her own right, upon such terms and conditions as to my Executrix may deem
Page 2 of 4
J?o;; e II
best, and to execute and deliver any and all instruments and to do all acts which my Executrix may deem
proper or necessary to carry out the purposes of this my Will, without being limited in any way by the
specific grants of power made, and without the necessity of a Court Order. Should my wife, ANNA L.
HOCKENBERRY be unable or unwilling to serve as Executrix, I hereby nominate and appoint my
daughters, DARLENE L. CORNMAN and DAWN D. PALMER, or the survivor of them, to serve as
Co- Executri ces.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and affixed my seal this I )'-u..-. day
