BUSTER SASSER JR.
March 16, 1944-Aug. 17, 2014
George Franklin "Buster" Sasser Jr., 70, Fremont, passed away early Sunday morning at his home.
Buster was born in Wayne County March 16, 1944, to the late George Franklin and Alice Geneva Edgerton Sasser.
He was a member of Union Grove Free Will Baptist Church.
A true angel, having innocence and purity of heart, Buster was a miracle and a blessing from the moment he was born. He shaped lives of family, friends and random strangers in ways that made them into better people.
Despite his own disabilities, he was always eager to help others. A quiet touch on your arm let you know he was there. His words were a constant reminder that he always thought of loved ones.
For more than 35 years, Buster participated in the work at the Wayne Opportunity Center. Though he is no longer with us in body, Buster will never leave our hearts, minds or spirits.
A service celebrating Buster's life will be held Tuesday, Aug. 19, 2014, at 7 p.m. in the chapel of Seymour Funeral Home, with the Rev. Tom Dorman officiating. Interment will be Wednesday, Aug. 20, 2014, at 11 a.m. in Evergreen Memorial Cemetery.
Buster is survived by his sister and brother-in-law, Faye and Harry Hinson of Pinkney; nieces, Tracy Edmundson and husband, Jamie, of Fremont and Melissa Weaver and husband, Mike, of Pikeville; great-nieces, Brianna Edmundson Meadows and husband, Jay, and Amber Weaver; and great-nephews, Coleman Ray Edmundson, Derek Weaver and wife, Alaina, and Trent Weaver.
