"Frank was a tremendously generous man – with his time, counsel and resources – and we join with his family and many friends in mourning his death,” said Rev. John I. Jenkins, C.S.C., Notre Dame’s president. “Frank’s wonderful spirit, wide smile and boundless enthusiasm will be missed.”
A 1944 graduate of Notre Dame, Eck was chairman of Advanced Drainage Systems (ADS) of Columbus. He earned his bachelor’s degree in chemical engineering and had served on the College of Engineering Advisory Council since 1984.
