LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT
I, Janet I. Hunter of Cumberland County, make this
will, hereby revoking all my former wills and codicils.
PAYMENT OF DEBTS CLAUSE
FIRST: I direct the payment of my just debts and
funeral expenses, the expenses of my last illness and the
expenses of administering my estate.
LEGACY BEQUESTS
SECOND: Each bequest to a beneficiaI'Y who does
not survive me shall be distributed to such beneficiary's
issue, per stirpes, who survive me.
DISTRIBUTION OF PERSONAL PROPERTY
THIRD: I bequeath all my tangible personal and
real property to my husband Roy B. Hunter, if he survives
me. If my husband does not survive me, I bequeath such
property to my daughters Laurie S. Strohl and Leslie B.
O'Neil in equal shares, the executor representing minors in
such division. If any of my children do not survive me,
then that portion shall be distributed to the existing
grandchildren of that child.
Any such property to which a minor would otherwise
become entitled but which the executor thinks unsuitable for
such minor shall be held in safekeeping by the guardian or
1

shall be sold and the proceeds thereof shall be distributed
to the guardian of the estate of such minor thereinafter
named, without bond, and the receipt of such guardian shall
be a complete release of the executor. Any such property to
which a minor thus becomes entitled may be delivered to the
guardian named herein, without bond, and the receipt of such
person shall be a complete release of the executor.
In case of disagreement among my beneficiaries,
the executor is authorized to make the division having due
regard for the personal preferences of my beneficiaries, but
making such division in as nearly equal shares as the
executor deems practical.
I direct that the expense of packing, shipping,
insuring and delivering any such property to a beneficiary
entitled thereto shall be paid by the executor as an
administrative expense of my estate. In addition, to the
extent practical in the executor's sole discretion, I
bequeath any policy of insurance on such property to the
beneficiary to whom such property is bequeathed.
RESIDUARY CLAUSE
FOURTH:
I devise and bequeath all the residue of
my estate, real and personal, to my husband Roy B. Hunter,
if he survives me.
If my said husband does noit survive me,
I devise and bequeath such residue to my daughiters in equal
shares, if they survive me, or to the existing grandchildren
of that child.

property shall be distributed to the person or persons who
would be entitled thereto if I had died intestate and

the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
FINANCIAL GUARDIANSHIP CLAUSE
FIFTH: If any beneficiary of my esta.te is under
the age of twenty-five years at the time at whi.ch
distribution of any property devised and bequeathed by this
will would otherwise be made to such beneficiary, the person
designated as Executor of this will shall serve as financial
guardian of the estate of such beneficiary hereinafter
named.
The guardian shall hold, manage, invE~st and
reinvest the property, shall collect the income thereof, and
shall apply so much of the net income and, if 1:he net income
is insufficient, so much of the principal of the property
held for such beneficiary as the guardian shall deem
necessary or advisable for such beneficiary's health,
maintenance, support and complete education.
The guardian shall accumulate any surplus net
income annually and add the same to the principal of the
property held for such beneficiary. No interest income or
principal shall be assignable by a beneficiary or available
to anyone having a claim against a beneficiary before actual
payment to the beneficiary.

of twenty-five years, the guardian shall distribute to the
personal representative of such beneficiary's estate all
property held by the guardian for such beneficiary, unless
otherwise provided for in this will.
EXECUTOR AND SUCCESSOR
SIXTH: I appoint my husband, Roy B. Hunter, as
executor of this will. If Roy B. Hunter is unable or
unwilling to act or continue as executor, for any reason
