Sirius wasn't just a (supposed) random death eater, though. He was a member of the OotP (of which Hagrid was also a member) and James Potter's best friend. He and James were notorious for harassing Slytherins while at Hogwarts. He stood out as one of the very few Blacks who wasn't sorted into Slytherin.
Hagrid might very well believe that Sirius was mis-sorted and should have been a Slytherin, but he would have to be very very stupid to have truly forgotten that Sirius was a Gryffindor.
