A formal Will is a set of written instructions by which a person
communicates how their property shall be disposed of after his or
her death. One who writes a Will is said to be a testator or a
testatrix if the person is female. In the case of death where a
Will has been created, that person is said to die testate. In the
absence of a Will a person dies intestate. A designee instructed
to handle the affairs of the estate is an executor or an executrix.
A Will or any part thereof may be revoked or altered by a subsequent
written Will, Codicil or other writing declaring such revocation or
alteration provided that the same formalities required for the
execution of Wills under this law are observed in the execution of
such Will, Codicil or other writing.
