Billy Ray Sasser

            Billy Ray Sasser, 58, of La Grange passed away peacefully on June 15, 2022 at Vidant Medical Center in the presence of family. 
            Billy was a hard-working self-employed individual, skilled in many trades. He enjoyed being at the beach, drag racing and spending time at home with his family and pets. He was a great friend to all who knew him, and he will be truly missed by all who loved him.
