All inheritance, estate, transfer, and succession taxes payable by reason of my death shall be paid out of my residuary estate, without reimbursement from any beneficiary. ARTICLE II Provided he shall survive me for a period of thirty (30) days, I give, devise and bequeath unto ERIC S.

ARTICLE III :rn the event that my said son, ERIC S. MCKEOWN should predecease me or we should perish in a common accident or catastrophe, then, and in either said events, I give devise and bequeath 25% of my estate to my grandson, MATTHEW ERIC MCKEOWN. The balance of my estate shall be divided between JENNIFER ANNE MALONE and MELISSA ANN BAKER, equally, share and share alike.
