Julia Springs Haile, MD, 63, of Charleston, South Carolina, died at Roper Hospital after a sudden and brief illness on Wednesday, February 6, 2019.

Judy was born August 1, 1955 in Mobile, Alabama, daughter of the late Ralph Thomas Haile Jr. and Julia Lachicotte Haile. She grew up in Myrtle Beach, swimming in the ocean, climbing cedar trees, and playing with her sister and cousins. She attended Furman University, MUSC Medical School, and later did a fellowship in infectious disease at MUSC. She initially practiced internal medicine in Rogersville, TN and has practiced infectious disease here in Charleston for the last 20 years.

She loved the outdoors and could often be found hiking, kayaking, and tending to her beautiful garden. Judy was also an avid tennis player, making some of her closest friends on the tennis court. As a patron of the arts as well, she loved jazz music, and eagerly awaited the Spoleto Festival every year.

Aunt Judy was adored by her nieces and nephews. She played an integral part in their upbringing and remained a family cornerstone to the very end. She was universally known as a selfless caregiver to patients, family, and friends alike. The world is a much better place because of her.

The family would like to thank the doctors and nurses at Roper Hospital for their excellent care.

Judy is preceded in death by her father, her mother, and Aunt Alice Anne Scarborough. She is survived by her sister, Alice Buck Haile Brenner; nephews: Sean Matthew Brenner, Seth Forrest Brenner, and Jeremiah Irwin Brenner; niece, Jessica Lee Brenner (Joo Lee); grandniece, Vera Maxwell Lee; and cousins: Mary Springs Couteaud (Stefan), and Robert Scarborough (Kathy).

Her funeral service will be held Sunday, February 10, 2019 in St. Matthew's Lutheran Church, 405 King Street at 2:00pm. The family will receive friends Saturday in J. Henry Stuhr, Inc. Downtown Chapel from 4:00pm until 6:00pm.
