Walter Anthony Sepulveda III

Walter Anthony Sepulveda III, aged 48, passed away on July 22, 2026, in Aurora, Colorado. Walter was born on February 7, 1978, in San Jose, California, where he originated from Valley Palms but grew up all throughout the East Side. Named after his father, Walter Jr. he was affectionately known in his early years as "Little Wally" until the family nickname evolved into “Gator” which stemmed from a cartoon his family was fond of. He attended school in California and made his first lifelong memories there as a proud California baby through and through, keeping his deepest roots tied to the West Coast. While visiting family in Colorado, Walter faced a significant turning point in his life that ultimately resulted in a twenty-year period of incarceration. Demonstrating immense resilience, he earned an early release and immediately put his family first; bound by parole to stay in Colorado, he successfully brought his wife and daughter out to join him in Aurora, where they established their household together with deep desires and plans to eventually return home to the West Coast.\

In Aurora, Walter established himself as a talented and extraordinarily hardworking jack-of-all-trades, specializing in plumbing and HVAC services. He used his skills both professionally and through endless side jobs and mechanical repairs to provide for his loved ones and assist neighbors. He was a lifelong learner with a passion for holistic health and natural herbal medicine. Walter was a devoted family man who shared a beautiful, enduring love with his wife, Victoria Sepulveda, whom he had known since their teenage years in California and married on July 20, 2018. Alongside his lovely wife he leaves behind his deeply cherished daughter, Jaziel , his daughter in law, Melsi and his two adored grand-pups, Melly and Zeus. He is also survived by his loving parents, Walter Jr. and Bernadine Sepulveda, as well as his siblings, Manuel, Bobby, and Brandy; his bonus mom Sharon Nakiso and siblings; OJ, Felix, Failelei, Asanati, Josie and many more loved ones. Thank you.
