Winfield Jacks, 64, of Prince Frederick died July 10, 2010, at his home in Barstow under the care of the Calvert Hospice.

He was born Oct. 24, 1945, to the late Charlotte and Louis Jacks.

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 he initially began receiving services with The Arc, it was 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. He retired from the day program in 2009, and began receiving services at home.

He enjoyed various activities and looked forward to volunteering for Meals on Wheels. He loved fried chicken, crabs and drinking a beer. The staff of The Arc of Southern Maryland considered him a part of the family. When he became ill, he kept a smile on his face and a song in his heart.

He is survived by his brother, Albert Jacks; nephew, Carl Hicks; and other family members.
