Revocation by destruction or changes

A will also may be revoked by the testator, with the intention of revocation, destroying the testamentary instrument or making changes to it that customarily express the intention to revoke a written declaration of intent. If the testator has destroyed the testamentary instrument or changed it in the manner described, it is presumed that they intended to revoke the will.
