LaVanture, of Carlisle, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, realizing the uncertainty of this life, and with full confidence and trust in my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, in His death for my sins and in His shed blood as an atonement for my soul, and knowing that by faith in His shed blood I have eternal life, and being in good health and of sound and disposing memory, do hereby make, declare, and publish this as my Last Will and Testament, hereby revoking all former Wills and Codicils heretofore made by me. FIRST: I direct that all my just debts and expenses of my last illness and funeral expenses shall be paid by my Executor, hereinafter named, from my estate as soon after my decease as shall be found convenient. SECOND: (a) I give, devise, and bequeath all the rest, residue, and remainder of my estate, whether real, personal or mixed, of any nature whatsoever and wherever situated, including any lapsed or void legacy, to my son, Joshua Paul LaVanture , if he survives me by thirty (30) days. (b) If my son, Joshua LaVanture predeceases me or is not living on the thirty-first day after my death, then I give as follows: (I) to my sister Nancy D. Buffington, a one-fourth share; (2) to my brother Richard E. Coe, a one-fourth share; (3) to my sister Charlynne R. Kelso, a one-fourth share; (4) to my father and mother, Charles W. Naumann and Margaret J. Naumann, a one-fourth share. THIRD: I herei:)y nominate, constitute, and appoint my son, Joshua Paul LaVantu~te, asExecut~I'~of this my Last Will and Testament. If my Executor fails to serve, or for any ~easQn fails to continue to serve, I then appoint my parents, €I.adc.& yt:" Naumann and Margaret J. Naumann, to serve as Co-Executors. f) '.' !' I 1 ) \ ~ ~ ~ -~ ~ (-hS- ~ -"Y)\ .../ JI (; FOURTH: I direct that my Executor, or his successor, shall not be required to furnish any bond or other security for the faithful performance of his duties, notwithstanding any provisions of law to the contrary. FIFTH: My Executor shall have, in addition to the powers and authority conferred upon him by law, the following additional powers and authority: 1. To sell at public or private sale, exchange, lease, mortgage, or pledge any property, real or personal, constituting a portion of this estate, at any time, and upon such terms and conditions as he shall deem wise. 2. To invest any money at any time in such bonds, stocks, notes, real estate, mortgages, life insurance, annuities, or other securities, or such property, real or personal, as he shall deem wise, without being limited by any statute or rule of law regarding investments by the Executor. 3. To retain, without incurring any liability, as investments, any property owned by me at the time of my death, as long as he deems it wise, and even though such property is not the kind of property he would purchase as an investment, and even though to retain such property might violate sound diversification principles. 4. To cause any security or other property which may at any time constitute a portion of my estate to be issued, held, or registered in his own name, or in the name of a nominee, or in such form that title will pass by delivery. 5. To consent to the reorganization, consolidation, readjustment of the financial structure, or sale of the assets of any corporation or other organization, the securities of which constitute a portion of my estate, and to take any action with reference to such securities which, in the opinion of my Executor, is necessary to obtain the benefit of any such reorganization, consolidation, readjustment or sale; to exercise any conversion privilege or subscription right given to him as the owner of any securities constituting a portion of my estate; to accept and hold as a portion of my estate securities resulting from any reorganization, consolidation, readjustment, sale, conversion, or subscription. 6. To pay all costs, taxes, charges and expenses in connection with the administration of my estate. 7. To determine what is "Income" and what is "Principal" hereunder, and his decision thereon shall be final; and to purchase securities at a premium or discount, and to apply or charge said premium or discount against income or principal as he may determine. 8. To transfer, sell, exchange, partition, lease, mortgage, pledge, give options upon, or otherwise dispose of any property at any time held by him, at public or private sale, or otherwise. 2 J ~ -..~ ---.> ~ (~ ~ ~ ! d 9. To borrow money from any person, firm or corporation, for the purpose of protecting and preserving or improving my estate or to execute promissory notes or other obligations for amounts so borrowed. 10. To employ legal counsel, accountants, brokers, investment advisors, custodians, managers, and other agents and employees and to pay them reasonable compensation out of my estate or out of any fund held hereunder to which said compensation is attributable. 11. To do all other acts in his judgment necessary or desirable for the proper and advantageous management, investment, and distribution of my estate. SIXTH: I direct that all transfer and inheritance taxes, state or federal, assessed because of my death, whether the funds, property, or insurance proceeds to which such taxes are attributable pass under this Will or not, shall be paid out of my residuary estate just as if they were my debts and none of those taxes shall be charged against any beneficiary; that my Executor pay, or provide for payment, of all such taxes at such time or times and in such manner as my Executor deems best. SEVENTH: AIl questions as to the validity of this, my Last Will, or the administration of the Will shall be governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. EIGHTH: If my son, Joshua Paul LaVanture, and I shall die simultaneously or under circumstances which make it difficult to determine which of us died first, I direct that I shall be determined to have predeceased my son and I direct further that the provisions of this Will shall be construed upon that assumption irrespective of any provisions of law establishing a contrary presumption or requiring survivorship for a fixed period as a condition of taking property by inheritance. NINTH: Should my son, Joshua Paul LaVanture, and the issue of my son all fail to survive me, then I give, devise, and bequeath all the rest, residue, and remainder of my estate of whatsoever nature and wheresoever situate to the individuals in the percentage share shown in paragraph 2 (b) above. TENTH: Except as otherwise provided in this Will, I have intentionally failed to provide for any other relatives or other persons, whether claiming to be an heir of mine or not. Insofar as I have failed to provide in this Will for any of my issue now living or later born or adopted, such failure is intentional and not occasioned by accident or mistake.
