The Apostle of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints died Saturday, Dec. 27, 2025, at age 85. His funeral was held in the Tabernacle on Temple Square on Wednesday.

This Church News video titled “Unforgettable Testimony of God” features President Holland’s children and Church President Dallin H. Oaks speaking at the funeral.

President Oaks said President Holland left “a huge mark, loving personal memories of his influence and his unforgettable testimony of God on all that he touched.”

David Holland, President Holland’s youngest child, said: “My earthly father who stayed the course with me through countless long, dark nights could bear witness with unshakable certainty to the loving God made manifest through Christ. I believe in such a God, I know such a God, in large part because I had such a dad.”
