George R. McCauley was born on December 4, 1930 to Clifford and Emma McCauley. He was born at home in Butte, MT.
He attended school in Butte and enlisted in the army at the age of 17. He transferred from the army to the Airforce where he served from 1947-1968. He served during the Berlin Airlift-the Korean War and the missile crisis in Cuba. He served as an advisor to the Italian Air Force for one year. He taught them to maintain jet fighters. He also served in Vietnam.
He retired from Hill Air force base in Utah. He continued to serve in the Air force reserve until 1979. After he retired from the Air force, he went on to building houses. In 1971 he built his home in York.

In 1976 he met Judy Lavoie in Missoula. They were married in 1977. They made their home in York where he raised her two children. In 1986 they sold their home in York and built their retirement home in Helena.
His joys in life are his grandkids. He played Santa for them when they were younger. He loved making them things like rocking horses and chairs. When the great grandkids came along, he built things for them too.
He loved working with wood. Many people have his intarsia work. He also made the stage coach, which is in the lobby of Wells Fargo bank.
