The body of late actor Heath Ledger was moved around 4 p.m. from a New York City funeral home to a nearby airport, a police source tells Usmagazine.com.

The airport is unknown, though the source says the casket is headed for L.A., possibly as a layover on its way to Ledger's hometown of Perth, Australia.

A black suit was delivered to the funeral home for Ledger to wear.

Ledger was found dead on Tuesday afternoon by his masseuse.

Today, his family published a moving tribute to the 28-year-old in a West Australian newspaper.
