Sauron was a Maia, a demi-god of sorts, and thus could not be "killed." Sauron's bodily form was destroyed in the destruction of Numenor, and he was ever after unable to assume a fair form. When Isildur severed the Ring from him, Sauron's spirit was greatly diminished, but not destroyed. Sauron was finally destroyed by Frodo when he dropped the ring into Mt. Doom, the volcano. Even then, his spirit still lived on, but so diminished in power as to be completely defeated for many an age.
