Throughout his career at Shook, Vince was known for his deep commitment to the success of the organization as well as for his passion for the "Shook family". Vince recognized early on the importance that people play in the company’s success and therefore he was dedicated to development of Shook’s employees, particularly young leaders. During his time as CEO, Vince oversaw the expansion of the Indianapolis and Cleveland offices as well as instituted a strategic planning process for the organization. Vince now serves as chairman emeritus of Shook’s Board of Directors.

Over the past 45 years, he has contributed both financial resources and his personal time to numerous local community and business organizations, including the Greater Dayton Area United Way, Miami Valley Council-Boy Scouts of America, and A Special Wish Foundation.

An avid general aviator with a passion for flying, Vince was selected in 2002 to represent the State of Ohio in a national event known as "Flight Across America." Vince was chosen to present the State of Ohio flag to the City of New York to honor the memory of those who perished on September 11, 2001.

Vince has a passion for education at all levels. He has spent the last several years volunteering at Mother Brunner Catholic School, advising local 7th/8th graders on high school choices and career path planning.
