Joseph “Joe” E. Winfield, Jr., 73, of Winchester, Virginia, passed away peacefully on Wednesday, October 28, 2026, at Hampshire Center in Romney, West Virginia.

Joe was born on May 9, 1953, in Cumberland, Maryland, to the late Joseph E. Winfield, Sr. and Eva Ann (Teter) Winfield. He was a 1971 graduate of Martinsburg High School and honorably served his country as a veteran of the United States Air Force.

A dedicated hard worker, Joe was self-employed and owned Winfield Transportation within the trucking industry until his retirement in 2012.

On Valentine’s Day, February 14, 1972, Joe married the love of his life, Shelva J. (Duvall) Winfield, in Williamsport, Maryland. Together they built a loving family and shared over 54 wonderful years of marriage.

Throughout his life, Joe enjoyed traveling, bowling in his earlier years, going to car shows with his buddies, and setting out on long motorcycle trips.

He is survived by his loving wife, Shelva; his daughter, Heather Scheuch (Dustin); his son, Joseph E. Winfield, III; two brothers, David “Dave” Winfield (Melanie) and Timothy “Tim” Winfield (Isabelle); sister, Mary Carol Winfield; and numerous nieces and nephews who were deeply fond of him.

In addition to his parents, Joe was preceded in death by his sister, Joyce Ann Miller.

A private Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.
