ALBUQUERQUE (KRQE) - Funeral services will be held this week for the Oklahoma couple killed in New Mexico allegedly at the hands of a prison escapee.

The remains of Gary and Linda Haas were found Aug. 4 in their burned camper near Santa Rosa.

Arizona prison escapees John McCluskey and Tracy Province, along with McCluskey's fiancée Casslyn Welch, have been charged in federal court in the couples' deaths.  They targeted the vacationing couple for their travel trailer but ultimately left with their pickup truck, which later was found abandoned in Albuquerque, according to investigators who said they believe McCluskey killed the Haases.

Services will be held in Tecumseh, Okla., on Thursday. Another service and burial will be held Saturday in the couple's native Southwest City, Mo.
