Educator Harry Frankfather Leaves $2 Million Gift to Bowling Green
Lorain County educator Harry Frankfather who died in 1998 left more than $2 million to his alma mater Bowling Green State University for student scholarships. A former Hamilton School principal and junior high football coach to Vic Janowicz, he spent his career shaping youths and later mentored through the Lorain County Youth Opportunity Center. His restraint in personal spending contrasted with a lasting impact on higher education and athletics.
