I, ROBERT C. SHIFFER, JR., of West Pennsboro Township,
)
Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, declare this instrument to b)
:......
my Last Will and Testament, hereby expressly revoking all Wil~~,
..~,,~
'. )
, I
'" )
1. I authorize and empower my executrix to sell any r~alty
r~
and Codicils heretofore made by me.
:;
C)
owned by me at my death, at either public or private sale, and to~0
give good and sufficient deeds therefor, in fee simple, as I could
do if living. My executrix is authorized and empowered to continue
to engage in any business in which I may be engaged at my death,
for such period as seems expedient to said executrix.
2. I devise and bequeath all of my estate of every nature and
wherever situate to my wife, Marilyn R. Shiffer, providing she
shall survive me by sixty days.
3. Should the gift in Paragraph No. 2 not take effect, I
devise and bequeath all of my estate of every nature and wherever
situate to my children, share and share alike, the child or
children of any deceased child taking the share their parent would
have taken if living.
4. Should any child be under the age of eighteen years at my
death, then all of my property given in Paragraph No. 3 shall be
held in trust by The Commonwealth National Bank, of the Borough of
Carlisle, Pennsylvania. The trustee, as well as my executrix, is
hereby authorized to retain unconverted, any property real or
personal, that I may own at my death, and shall be under no duty
to convert the same into legal investments. The trustee shall
have the power and authority to hold, manage, invest and reinvest
and to pay over the net income of the trust property to or for
the use and benefit of such of my children as may be under the age
of eighteen years, or to accumulate the same in the sole discretion
of the trustee. The trustee shall be under no duty to distribute
or use the income equally for each of my children under eighteen
years, but may distribute or use it unequally in its discretion.
The trustee is also authorized and empowered to pay over to, or
for the use and benefit of, any of my children whether under or
over eighteen years, such portion of or all of the principal of
the trust estate as in its sole discretion seems proper, for the
maintenance, education or setting up of a child in business or in
a profession or for similar purposes. The trustee shall be under
no duty to distribute or use the principal equally for each of my
children, but may distribute or use principal unequally in its dis-
cretion. My primary object is the support, maintenance and education
of such children as may be under eighteen years of age. When the
youngest of my children reaches the age of eighteen years, then
whatever remains of income or principal of the trust estate shall
be distributed equally to my children, share and share alike, the
child or children of any deceased child taking the share their
parent would have taken if living, and subject to the same trust
provisions if he, she or they are under eighteen years of age.
5. Should the gift in Paragraph No. 3 not take effect, I
devise and bequeath all of my estate of every nature and wherever
situate as follows:
(a) 1/2 thereof to Irvin C. Shiffer and Esther M. Shiffer,
his wife, and
(b) 1/2 thereof to Henry W. Enswiler and Thelma O. Enswiler,
his wife.
6. I nominate and appoint Marilyn R. Shiffer to be the
executrix of this my Last Will and Testament; she is to serve
as such without bond. Should she die before my death, renounce or
refuse to serve for any reason, or die leaving any of my estate
unadministered, my eldest child being under the age of eighteen
years, I nominate and appoint William E. Harris as substitute
executor with the same powers as are given herein to my executrix,
and also without the filing of any bond. If, however, at my death,
any child of mine is eighteen years or older, such child or
children shall be the substitute executor or executors of this my
last Will and Testament, also to serve as such without bond, with
the same powers as are given herein to my executrix.
7. Should the gift in Paragraph No.3 take effect, I hereby
direct that William E. Harris shall be the guardian of the person
of any of my children who shall be under the age of eighteen years
-2-
l
I
I
at my death. If, for any reason William E. Harris declines to
serve as guardian, then I direct that Lewis M. Young and Gail O.
Young shall be the guardians of said minor children.
8. I hereby suggest that my personal representative retain
the services of Irwin, Irwin & Irwin, as attorneys in the settlement
of my estate.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and seal this
