Final rites for Corporal Milton R. Tucker will be held at 10 a.m. Saturday in the First Baptist church of Borger.
The 28-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. LeRoy Tucker, 4186 Third street, was killed Tuesday when the motorcycle he was riding collided with a jeep at Fort Hood, Texas.
Tucker, a military policeman, was escorting an ambulance to the camp hospital at the time of the accident.
Tucker also is survived by his wife, Erica and a young son [sic, daughter], who resided at Copperas Cove, Texas, while Tucker was stationed at the Central Texas post.
