Lane, a lifelong resident of Albany, graduated from Phillip Schuyler High School in 1950. He joined the United States Marine Corps in July, 1950, barely a month after the Korean War began, and served his country for four years during that war and later, enlisted in the United States Army in 1959.
Lane was employed at the Stratton Veterans Administration Hospital, the United States Post Office and the Watervliet Arsenal. He was a very active member of the Union Missionary Baptist Church and taught boxing, karate and weightlifting. Lane was very close to his family and was a favorite uncle to his many nieces and nephews.
