Jesus Pintor, age 76, of Saint Charles, Missouri passed away on Sunday, February 20, 2022 in Saint Charles, Missouri. He was born in Copandaro De Galeana, Michoacan, Mexico on July 2, 1945 to Baltazar and Ofelia Pintor Haburto. He was happily married to Elia Garcia for 50 years.
Jesus was a loving and gentle husband, a wonderful father and grandfather, and had nicknames for all of his grandchildren. Jesus was a genuine and caring man, never forgetting a single birthday of any of his grandchildren. He was the jokester of the family, always telling jokes and making everyone laugh. Jesus could usually be seen in slippers and one of his many hats- most likely his favorite Cardinals hat. He enjoyed watching soccer and scratching lottery tickets. When Elia was away, he would have his grandkids sneak into her purse to get money for scratchers, Hardees, and Taco Bell, especially beef chalupas. Jesus was a strong man, and he fought bravely until the end. Jesus' last words were to take care of Elia. His last wish was to go back to his homeland.
