Milton Ray Law, age 82 passed away peacefully on Tuesday morning, January 11, 2022 at The Waters of Martinsville. He was a resident of Brown County.

Milton was born January 31, 1939 in Allen County, Kentucky, to the late Roy Elvis and Laura Catherine (Meador) Law.  He belonged to the UAW Local # 23 and retired in 1990 as a Line Worker for Chevrolet in Indianapolis after 25 years of service. Milton also helped grind sorghum cane at the Gnaw Bone Sorghum Mill and logged with horses for a short time with his brother, Eddie.

On March 24, 1999, Milton married Sarah “Louise” (Hatchett) Law in Martinsville. She preceded him in death on August 18, 2010. He was also preceded in death by a son, Jeffrey G. Law; granddaughter, Rebecca Rose Law; great granddaughter, Sabrina Grace Law; and siblings, Reageneau Tapp, Cillous Law, Norman Law, Eddie Law and Jackie Law.

One of Milton’s memorable trips was to Australia in the early 90’s. The plane ride, his first, consisted of a 27-hour trip to Australia. His thirty-day trip consisted of fishing, living in the outback and riding one of the horses that was used in the making of his favorite movie, “Man from Snowy River”.

Milton enjoyed the outdoors by gardening, trail riding at the Brown County State Park or simply sitting on his front porch in rural Brown County. He loved being with his family and playing with his grandchildren.
