Elder Wirthlin' s funeral planned Friday in Salt Lake
The LDS Church's satellite system will carry the funeral live, as will BYU-TV, a cable and satellite channel. It was not immediately known if local TV stations will also broadcast the service.
Regarding a replacement apostle, no timeline has been set yet. Traditionally, however, selection of a new apostle can come in a few weeks, unless church leaders decide to wait until the next general conference, which in this case would be April.
