Wanda Louise (Staton) Eubanks, 83, of
Fort Gibson, OK was born May 7, 1941, to Gordon and Dorothy (Cramer) Staton and met her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, on Tuesday, August 27, 2024, in Tulsa, OK. Louise was a lifetime Fort Gibson resident, graduating from Fort Gibson High School with the Class of 1959. She met and married the love of her life, Peck Eubanks, in Fort Gibson, on August 20, 1959, the same year she graduated. After high school, Louise went on to work at Corning Glass for 16 years, before accepting a position as the director of accounting for the Muskogee Housing Authority. She excelled at this position for 23 years, until her retirement in 2011. Louise was a great conversationalist and had many friends, making sure to always attend game nights with the ladies or being part of the Sassy Sewing Ladies Club. She was an active member of the First Baptist Church in Fort Gibson and enjoyed traveling with her family and friends. Louise was also phenomenal in the kitchen and was famous for her yeast rolls. In her later years as she became a grandparent, she found her greatest passion to be her grandkids, spoiling and loving them. Louise loved flowers, specifically tulips, planting them and had beautiful flowers every year. She enjoyed the hobby of quilting and became very skilled at both quilting and sewing. Louise loved her family fiercely, and leaves behind a legacy of devotion and unconditional love. She will be missed by all who knew and loved her.
