CHESTER - Carl Roger Hudson, 85, of Chester, WV, formerly of Hammondsville, passed away Friday, October 27, 2023, at Weirton Medical Center.

He was born September 25, 1938, in Irondale, the son of the late Hurshel and Blanche (Landis) Hudson. In addition to his parents, Carl was preceded in death by his infant son, Dennis Roger Hudson; one infant great-grandson, Connor Hellyer; and three brothers: Floyd, Frank, and Norman Hudson.

Carl graduated from Jefferson Union High School in 1957, and he proudly served his country in the United States Army.  He was previously employed as an operator for Quaker State Refinery. Carl was an avid woodworker and voracious reader. However, the place the felt most at home was in the woods, especially during the fall months. Carl was a fisherman and a coon hunter extraordinaire. He had many beloved hunting dogs over the years, but none were as fine as Ring, Babe, and Boone.

Survivors include his wife, Anita (Cashdollar) Hudson, whom he married in 1987; his five children: Wes (Suzanne) Hudson of Paris, PA, Amanda (Todd) Krupinski of Wintersville, Aaron (Sabrina) Hudson of Pittsburgh, Carla (Jim) Robison of Rayland, OH, and Travis (Amy) Hudson of Brandon, MS; and two brothers: Daniel Hudson of Pickens, SC and Charles Hudson of Florida. Also surviving are eleven grandchildren and twelve great-grandchildren.
