Gwyn Walters Obituary

Gwyn was born to Anthony Walters and Sally Schrader in Grand Island, Neb. Gwyn succumbed to injuries from a tragic car accident in Wasilla, Alaska, on October 19th, 2025. Gwyn grew up in Nebraska, where she spent time with her dad, uncles, and grandparents on the family farm. After graduating from McCool Junction Public School in 2024, she moved to Alaska with her dad to launch into life. Gwyn loved her family and friends and took pride in being a big sister and friend. Just at the beginning of her life, Gwyn had dreams and goals and wasn't afraid to try something new to see if it fit. Gwyn is remembered by Anthony (Jaqueline) Walters, Sally (Brandon Sharp) Schrader; and siblings, Oliver, Aurora, Wyatt, Eric, Cory; as well as many grandparents, uncles, aunts, cousins, and friends, who miss her dearly. Gwyn will take one last trip with her family to Nebraska, where they will celebrate and remember her life.

Gwen worked for me for a short time in Geneva.
First time I met her, her hair was green and I knew right there that she was an amazing young person.
May she rest in peace and may God comfort the family during this difficult time.

My niece Gyen, was truly a ray of sunshine, always bringing happiness and a smile wherever she went. We´ll forever hold onto the fond memories she created, like the joy-filled trip to the pumpkin patch with her cousins and making a mess canning pears together. Gwyn illuminated so many lives with her vibrant spirit, and her light will be deeply, profoundly missed by us all.
