1Opinion of the Court

MESCHKE, Justice.

Gary Hoffart appealed a decree denying his petition to probate another codicil to the will of Joseph T. Voeller because it had only one witness. We affirm.

Joseph T. Voeller died testate on August 15, 1992. In a valid codicil signed on April 10, 1989, Voeller directed proceeds from a land contract be used for expenses and the contract balance divided among his five children. Voeller’s original will, made on January 13, 1988, directed that his estate be divided equally among his five living children, and designated Gary Hoffart, a neighbor, to be personal representative.
