David O. McKay's dies at age 96, the oldest age to which any LDS president has lived, but not the oldest general authority. His is the longest service as a general authority, sixty-three years and nine months. Heber J. Grant and Joseph Fielding Smith have the next longest tenures of sixty-two years and a few months as general authorities.
