Mike LAW

1942 - 2021

MIKE LAW 1942 - 2021 On February 21, 2021 on a beautiful morning at his home in St Margaret's Bay, NS, Mike died peacefully with his family at his side. Mike leaves his wife of 46 years, Mary Ann (Gimby), his devoted sons, Jonathan and Jeremy, and family dog, Gracie. He also leaves his sisters, Janet (Bill Dickie) and Peggy (Vance White), the Gimby family, countless Law and Anderson relatives and many friends. Born to Ruth and Bob Law on March 9, 1942, Mike grew up in Oakville and went on to attend university where he pursued his love of football. Never a big guy, he developed his ability through hard work, determination and grit. Against the odds, he fulfilled his dream of playing in the CFL in 1967. He spent six great years as Defensive halfback in Edmonton before finishing his CFL career as a Grey Cup Champion with Ottawa. Mike and Mary Ann moved to Masons Point, NS where he taught high school. Weekends were spent with good friends in Wentworth, NS and summers were spent with his clan in Butternut Bay, ON. He was a hero and friend to many and we are grateful for a life well lived. A celebration of his life will take place later this year.
