Family and friends will say their final goodbyes to Athena Strand in a private funeral Friday.
The 7-year-old girl was found dead after police say a contracted FedEx driver abducted her from her father's home in Wise County and later killed her.
Police ultimately charged the FedEx driver, 31-year-old Tanner Horner, with capital murder and aggravated kidnapping. According to the arrest affidavit, Horner told investigators he was dropping off a package to Strand's home when he accidentally hit her with his truck. Horner told police the girl was not seriously injured and was talking to him, but that he"panicked" and put her in his truck, and later killed her.
