Wife Barbara Shank (Separated). And many nieces and nephews, including Darlene as his favorite.
Vince was preceded in death by sister, Patsy Shank; Three brothers, Orville Shank, Jr.; William Shank, Sr., Dennis Shank, Sr.
The family will receive friends and family for an Open House style visit to share stories and life memories of Vince at Chewsville Community Center, also known as HA Lewis Community Hall, 11735 White Hall Rd., Smithsburg, on December 5, 2020 from 11AM to 3PM.
