He was the first Lane to attend Loyola School of Law where his father was an adjunct professor teaching journalism.

He married Dorothy Cassel in 1953, and the couple had their first child, Barbara. The family moved to New York, where they passed through Long Island before settling in Croton-on-Hudson. Stephen, Thomas, Daniel and David were born along the way.
