George Ciro Sagitto 62, of St. Louis, Missouri passed away peacefully December 15, 2020 with family members at his side following a stroke. George was born in Richmond Heights on April 26, 1958 to George and Eta Sagitto and grew up in Richmond Heights. He attended Maplewood-Richmond Heights High School and graduated from South County Technical High School.
A lifelong fan of motorcycle and auto racing, George took many cross-country trips to attend his favorite races including almost yearly treks to the Indianapolis 500. In his younger days, he was an avid dirt biker and outdoorsman. An inveterate tinkerer, George had various motorcycle parts in his garage that he was “fixing up.” He was a shrewd real estate investor, often discovering bargain houses that he would buy and fix up and later sell at a profit.
George was a wonderful brother and lifelong friend to many. “Because I have a brother, I’ll always have a friend.” George was a true and loving friend to his four sisters Debra Sagitto, Janet McBride and Diana Luczak (of St. Louis) and Edwina Sagitto (of Munich, Germany), his nieces and nephews Laura, Sarah, Angie, Elena, Brian, Melanie and Benjamin and many cousins and several grand-nieces and grand-nephews.
Funeral Mass to be held at Our Lady of Providence Catholic Church, 8866 Pardee Rd. 63123, on Monday, April 26 at 10 am. Inurnment Resurrection Cemetery.

We are all very sad about George’s sudden passing. I have many fond childhood memories of my cousin, George. His father and my father were brothers who came over from Italy, first generation, so we saw each other often. He was just a year older than me, so he is definitely gone too soon. Prayers for George and his sisters.

Words cannot express the feelings I have for my lifelong friend that was the salt of the earth, a truly good guy and friend to so many. Reading the Facebook posts tells the story. We have lost one rare, gentle soul. Wish the world had more like him. My condolences to the family. I’ll keep you and him in my prayers.

George was a family friend and was good friends with my brother, Tracy. They hung out and took trips to Auto Races back in the day. George was always a very nice person. He will be missed. Rest In Peace George.

I knew George for more than 30 years, and I am so thankful that we got together twice during our last visit to St. Louis this February.
What a shock his sudden death is for all of us and especially for his sister Deb, whom he was so close to. George was such a gentle, charming and sweet man and a great brother to his sisters. In this sudden turn of events it is a comfort to me to see that George had so many friends, old and new.
George: a beautiful soul that will never be forgotten!

Aunt Olga Sagitto and the cousin Gabriella Basile are very sad for the sudden loss of dear George. We remember with deep love when he first came to Naples as a young boy with his father uncle George and when he came back to Italy again with his sister Debbie. We couldn’t meet him again but he’ll be always in our thoughts. Aunt Olga and her daughter Gabriella.

Sincere condolences to George’s entire family. I was blessed to know George and spend much quality time with him in our teens. George could always get the best concert tickets and we would all pile into his station wagon for the adventure. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
