On Thursday, November 21, 2024, André Napoleon Neveu peacefully passed away at the age of 73. André was a devoted husband, father, and grandfather, remembered for his kind heart and artistic spirit.

André is also survived by his siblings Roland (Monique), Emile (Ann), Claude, Nicole (Bill), Robert, and Jean (Jacques). He will be sorely missed by his many nieces, nephews, cousins, friends, neighbors, and best friends Earl (Lise) and Phil (Louise).
