After Cathy passed the surreptitious background check performed by Jim's father, Chicago Police Detective Sandy Nolan, they were married. Married for 51 years, Jim and Cathy raised three children and shared a keen devotion to family and friends. Jim was a master storyteller, knew all the best restaurants and bars in New York, London, Paris and San Francisco, and always maintained the secret of life was having your next trip planned. He loved horse racing, and spent many hours at Arlington Racetrack, poring over the Racing Form, always in search of that next great bet. His great joys in life were his family, his work as a lawyer, traveling the world with his wife, and sharing candy and laughter with his grandchildren. Jim is survived by his wife Cathy (nee Samson); his children Jennifer (Wade Elliott), Brett (Gillian Flynn), and Megan; his grandchildren Xavier Marroquin, Flynn Nolan and Veronica Nolan; his siblings Thomas Nolan (Hon. (Ret.) Gloria Coco), Jane Nolan (the late Steve Heffernan), and Kathleen (Allen) Wesolowski.
