Funeral services for Carroll Lee Hudson, 38, who was killed earlier this week, were at 2 p.m. today in Alexander Chapel of Memories.
The Rev. Dr. Joe Jackson, pastor of the First Assembly of God Church, officiated. Burial was in Highland Park Cemetery.
Mr. Hudson was shot in what authorities have termed a "family altercation." The shooting occurred about 12:30 a.m. Tuesday near the city dump and his body was found in a car on a county road.

Hudson was born March 15, 1943, in Pampa, and moved to Borger when he was five years old. He attended Borger Schools, and was employed as an operator by Phillips Petroleum Co., at the Rock Creek Plant.
Survivors include his wife, Janet; a daughter, Michelle of California; his mother, Mrs. Gertude Young of Patton Camp; his father, Thomas of Pampa; three brother, Edsel of Tulsa, Okla., Melvin of Patton Camp, and Bobby of Borger; a sister, Mrs. Yvonne Breg of Crosby.
