Hi Janet

There's information about burials here

http://www.leicestershirevillages.com/billesdon/availablechurchandburialrecords.html

I would try contacting the parish council first with his exact date of death and last known address to see if he is buried in the cemetery.

http://billesdon.leicestershireparishcouncils.org/services.html?reference=IPSV%2F4597

Although his death was registered in Billesdon district he could have lived elsewhere (see link below) so you may need to extend your search
