Form of revocation of deed upon death

Official statutory text

A deed upon death may be revoked at any time by the owner or, if there is more than one owner, by any of the owners who created the deed even if the deed or other instrument contains a contrary provision. The revocation is valid only if executed and recorded as provided by law in the office of the county recorder of the county in which the property is located before the death of the owner who executes the revocation. A deed upon death may not be revoked by a revocatory act on the deed. If the property is held as joint tenants with right of survivorship or as community property with the right of survivorship and the revocation is not executed by all the owners, the revocation does not become effective unless the revocation is executed and recorded by the last surviving owner. The revocation of deed must be in substantially the following form:
