'''Frank C. Hecker''' was an executive of the [[Alger-Sullivan Lumber Company]] known for his massive [[Century]] estate, "[[Tannenheim]]."

He was the son of Colonel [[Frank Joseph Hecker]], a resident of Detroit and early stockholder of the Alger-Sullivan company, who commissioned the Tannenheim estate for his son, who moved there in [[1901]] to mind the family's business interests.

The younger Hecker was a sportsman and member of both the [[Pensacola Country Club]] and [[Pensacola Yacht Club]]. His private yacht, "Miss Sue," was used for races and recreational jaunts in the latter club and for deep-sea fishing in the [[Gulf of Mexico]].
