With whose deaths do Genesis and Deuteronomy end?

Les explains that the book of Genesis ended with the death of Joseph, and the book of Deuteronomy ends with the death of Moses. He notes that this is not original with him, but he likes to repeat it: God buries His servants, but never His program. Even though great men of God have passed off the scene, it did not interrupt the fulfilling of all of God's purposes. Moses went up into Mount Nebo and died, and Joshua picked up the reins of leadership as the nation was on the east side of Jordan at flood time, about to go in and occupy the promised land.
