Hundreds of people from Eve Carson's hometown of Athens and the Chapel Hill, N.C., university filled Athens First United Methodist Church and fellowship hall. Many wore Carolina blue ribbons in her honor.

``We should not be here this afternoon,'' the senior minister, Bill Britt, said, angry that she was not instead celebrating spring break or getting ready for the Atlantic Coast Conference basketball tournament.

``It is too soon to be remembering the life of Eve Marie Carson,'' he said.

Britt remembered Carson, 22, as someone who made a difference and saw the good in others.

Carson was found Wednesday morning lying on a street about a mile from campus. She had been shot several times, including once in the right temple. Police said she was likely the victim of a random crime.

Detectives have been searching for a man photographed using Carson's ATM card, releasing photos on Saturday of the suspect at an ATM machine in Chapel Hill.
