Louise grew up at Hammon where she attended school graduating in 1944. After graduating she remained in Hammon where she worked at the local cafe`. Louise was married to Edward Floyd Gunter on December 15, 1945. After their marriage they remained in Hammon until 1947 when they moved south of Burns Flat, Oklahoma where they farmed. It wasn't until 1960, when they built a house in Canute, that they moved to make their home. In the early 70's she found employment with Western Vo-Tech where she was a secretary and continued until her retirement in the late 80's. After Edward's death she remained in the home until her health forced her to moved to Clinton and eventually Elk City to be closer to family. Louise enjoyed sewing, ceramic work, reading, shopping and spending time with her family and friends.
