ATLANTA (AP) — A memorial service for Larry Munson, who was known by University of Georgia fans as the voice of the school’s football team, will be held next month.

WBS Radio reports (http://bit.ly/w1U41r) that the service has been tentatively scheduled for Dec. 10 at Sanford Stadium. Officials said the time of the service will be announced later as arrangements are finalized.

Munson, who was Georgia’s radio play-by-play announcer for nearly 43 years, died Sunday night at his home in Athens of complications from pneumonia. He was 89.
