(c) at least 2 of those witnesses attest and sign the will in the presence of the testator (but not necessarily in the presence of each other).

(3)  It is not essential for a will to have an attestation clause.

(4)  If a testator purports to make an appointment by his or her will in the exercise of a power of appointment by will, the appointment is not valid unless the will is executed in accordance with this section.

(5)  If a power is conferred on a person to make an appointment by a will that is to be executed in some particular manner or with some particular solemnity, the person may exercise the power by a will that is executed in accordance with this section, but is not executed in that manner or with that solemnity.

(6)  If a person who attests the execution of a will is, at the time of the execution of the will or at any time afterwards, incompetent to be admitted as a witness to prove the execution of the will, the will is not on that account invalid.
