Obituary : James George Hauf
Bluffton, South Carolina - Jim died peacefully at
his home on January 5, 2022. He was 81.
Jim was born in Baltimore, MD the son of Edith
Dent Hauf and Joseph H. Hauf
He graduated from Loyola High School and attended
Loyola University before joining the Marine Corps. He graduated from the Naval
Air Training Command as a Naval Aviator. He served as a helicopter pilot in
Vietnam from 1963-1964 and received commendations for bravery.
After the war, Jim joined Delta Airlines and flew
as Captain around the US and Europe until his retirement in 1997. In 1962 he
met the love of his life, Judy Cooper and they were married in 1963. They were
longtime residents in the Hilton Head/Bluffton area.
Jim and Judy enjoyed traveling, entertaining and
football. He had a classic sense of humor and always enjoyed a good joke, on
himself or others. He was fastidious, almost to a humorous fault. He was
forever proud of his Marine Corps membership and celebrated that relationship.
He was a great friend to all who were close to him and always gave more than he
received in friendship and generosity.
Jim is survived by his sister, Pamela Hauf Brooks,
his son-in-law, Jason Brown and grandchildren, Grace and Nicholas. Jim was
predeceased by his wife, Judy, and his daughter, Patty Brown.
