Christopher Napoleon was born on March 24th 1956, in Hartsville South Carolina to William and Helen Carol Napoleon. Some years later their family moved to Brooklyn, New York and then to Queens; where he attended Hilt Crest High School. Soon after graduating he continued his education learning the trade of sub-contracting. Christopher mastered in painting, plastering, flooring, and building; especially cabinets and wall-units. (I know because he built one in our little project apartment).
He loved what he did and worked hard at it. He always made sure he left his clients happy and never disappointed. Chistopher Napoleon loved and protected his family, mainly his wife and children. Without hesitation he would travel to many states just to spend time with his children and grandchildren. He never thought about just himself, until he realized he was spreading himself too thin and he was unable to fight any longer. After a long battle with stage 4 lung cancer and blood clots Christopher passed from labor to reward.
He is now resting with his siblings, Lavander Frazier, William Yarayisp Napoleon, Gregory Button Napoleon, Gwenyth Branch; and his favorite aunt, Christine Allen.
His accomplishments were to marry, have children and to be loved by his whole family. He leaves behind his wife, Denise Napoleon; children, Christopher Napoleon, Jr., Venus Napoleon, Denise Brockington, Jr., Daniel Napoleon, Simone Napoleon, Tashay Branch, William Joshua Branch, and Jasmere Napoleon; 39 grandchildren, 5 greatgrandchildren; and a load of nieces and nephews, whom he loved and adored. He also leaves his siblings, Daryel Napoleon, Christine Tina Turner, Evetta Napoleon, Athon Napoleon, Robert Peanut Wilson, and Josette Napoleon.
