Son Curtis Pitt – who later represented the same electorate – confirmed the news on Friday morning.
“After fighting the good fight his entire life,he laid down his gloves in the early hours of this morning,passing away peacefully,” he said in a statement.
“He lived an extraordinary life,doing so much for others and creating a positive impact on this world.
“Thank you to those people who were a part of Dad’s life – you were important because you made his life richer and fuller for knowing you.
“I never had to look too far to find a hero,or to aspire to aim high. In our Dad,greatness has been sitting next to us,holding our hands and guiding us our entire lives.”
Pitt is survived by wife Linda,and two children Curtis and Dionne.
