Billy was born on May 28, 1934 to the late Quez and Evie Lou Fox Hefner. Billy was a member of Shiloh Lutheran Church. He enjoyed hunting, fishing, and going to new places; he referred to this as loafing, piddling, and tinkering.

In addition to his parents, Billy was preceded in death by a sister, Loretta Chapman, and a brother, Harold Hefner.

Those left to cherish the memories of Mr. Hefner include his wife of 64 years, Sylvia Loretta Austin Hefner; three daughters, Dawn Shealy (Steve), Karen Sigmon (Terry), and Mia Snipes and fiancé Larry Ingle; a son, Jeffery Hefner; and a brother, Don Hefner (Sharon). Billy also is leaving five grandchildren, Heather Baldonado, Olivia Shepherd, Ashley Hefner, Caylee Maltba, and Tyler Maltba; five great-grandchildren, Delaney, Gabriel, Rory, Camden, and Ian; along with seven nieces and nephews.

A private graveside service will be conducted at Shiloh Lutheran Church Cemetery.

The family requests that, in lieu of flowers, donations be made to the Shiloh Lutheran Church Building Fund @ 1011 Shiloh Church Rd, Hickory, NC 28601.
