It was the first time in about 75 years that a Church president has died just before general conference. President Oaks presided at the October 2025 general conference as President of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles.
With the death of a President of the Church, the First Presidency was dissolved and the counselors returned to their places in the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles. Time between the death of the Church President and the reorganization of the First Presidency — generally after the prophet’s funeral — is called apostolic interregnum.
