Obituary for WINFIELD JACKS
Winfield Jacks was born on October 24, 1945 to the late Charlotte and Louis Jacks. He departed this life on July 10, 2010 at the age of 64 at his home in Barstow under the care of Hospice.
During his early years he enjoyed being at home with his family. He began receiving services from The Arc of Southern Maryland in 1983. When Winfield initially began receiving services with The Arc, they were located at the old Calvert Memorial Hospital where he participated in vocational services. His most recent interest was participating with the music activities of "The Joyous Sounds". His favorite song was "Your Cheating Heart" which he sang often.
Last year he retired from the Day Program and began receiving services at home. He enjoyed various activities and looked forward to volunteering for Meals on Wheels. Winfield loved fried chicken, crabs and drinking a beer. The staff of The Arc of Southern Maryland considered Winfield as a part of his family. When Winfield became ill he kept a smile on his face and a song in his heart. He will be missed from our presence but not from our hearts!
He is survived by his brother Albert Jacks and nephew Carl Hicks and other family members.
