Daniel R. Nolan lived his life as if he was invincible. He knew, of course, he was not but it did not dampen his enthusiasm for living life at the edges. He skied black diamond slopes. He scuba dived to the depths of the ocean. He had no fear.
At just 44 years of age, he was an Assistant Vice President - Computer Technology Services at Johnson & Higgins/Marsh McLennan. On September 11, 2001 he was at his office in North Tower of the World Trade Center when he was killed. He was one of 358 Marsh McLennan employees who were murdered that day.
Daniel Nolan and Renee, his wife, lived in Hopatcong, New Jersey with their two children, Jonathan Daniel and Kaitlyn Eileen, who were just seven and four years old when he was taken from them. He graduated from the University of Hartford's Barney School of Business in 1983. He was one of a half-dozen University of Hartford graduates killed on September 11.
Kaitlyn Eileen Nolan is now Katie Nolan, the proud mother of Daniel Ray Wheeler, named for the grandfather he never met, who at just five months old accompanied his mom from their home in Wichita, Kansas to Lower Manhattan on September 11, 2021 where she read her father's name at the 20th Anniversary Remembrance.
