Goodyear, Deborah K. Morrison and Wendy P. Witmer, the surviving heirs and
grandchildren ofthe Late Charles M. Goodyear, by and through their attorney, Joseph D.
Buckley, Esquire, and Petition this Honorable Court to Order the Register of Wills to
grant letters of administration to them based on the following:
1. Charles M. Goodyear, a/kla Charles X. Goodyear, late of Hill Street Extended,
Mount Holly Springs (South Middleton Township), Cumberland County, PA
17065 ("Decedent") died October 28, 1981, more than twenty-one (21) years
ago. (A true and correct copy of his death certificate is attached hereto and
marked Exhibit "A" and is incorporated herein by reference)
2. Decedent at the time of his passing was a widower and had one son, Charles
R. Goodyear.
3. Charles R. Goodyear late of Hill Street Extended, Mt. Holly Springs (South
Middleton Township), Cumberland County, PA 17065 died April 2, 1997. (A
true and correct copy of his death certificate is attached hereto and marked
Exhibit "B" and is incorporated herein by reference)
4. At the time of his death Charles R. Goodyear was married to Pauline
Goodyear, also late of Hill Street Extended, Mt. Holly Springs (South
Middleton Township), Cumberland County, PA 17065 who died May 24,
2004. (A true and correct copy of her death certificate is attached hereto and
marked Exhibit "c" and is incorporated herein by reference).
5. At the time of his death Charles R. Goodyear had three children: Charles D.
Goodyear, Deborah K. Morrison and Wendy P. Witmer, the Petitioners
herein.
6. Petitioner Charles D. Goodyear is an adult U.S. citizen currently residing at
1018 Crystal Creek Circle, Mechanicsburg, P A 17050-1991.
7. Petitioner Deborah K. (nee, Goodyear) Morrison is an adult U.S. citizen
currently residing at 1017 W. Trindle Road, Mechanicsburg, P A 17055.
8. Petitioner Wendy P. (nee, Goodyear) Witmer is an adult U.S. citizen currently
residing at 104 Forge Road, Boiling Springs, P A 17007.

10. Petitioners have been granted letters of administration for the estate of their
mother Pauline Goodyear. (A true and correct copy of the Letters issued by
the Register of Wills is attached as Exhibit "D")
11. During the review of the land believed to be owned by their mother and
father, it was determined that a portion of the land believed to be owned by
their parents had never been transferred from Decedent to Petitioners' parents
and remains in the name of Decedent.
12. Petitioners' parents had during their lifetime exercised control over, and
maintained the property, and also paid all real estate taxes levied on the
property.
13. The said tract of ground is contiguous to lands of the Estate of Pauline
Goodyear, and is a tract of unimproved ground with a few dilapidated
buildings.
14. Petitioners desire that they be named administrators of the Estate of the
Decedent so they may transfer title to the land when they sell the land of their
late mother.
15. This Honorable Court has jurisdiction in this matter pursuant to the Probate,
Estates and Fiduciaries Code (20 Pa. C.S. Section 3152).
16. Petitioners, being the only heirs of Decedent and the only interested parties in
this matter, hereby waive any and all notice requirements.
WHEREFORE, Petitioners humbly request that the Orphan's Court order that the
Register of Wills issue letter of administration to Petitioners or in the alternative,
if determined necessary, issue a citation directed to interested parties to show
cause why the Register of Wills should not be authorized to grant letters of
administration to Petitioners.
