February 14, 2019 at 2:18 pmGeorge was my manager in Purchasing at United Airlines for several years. He was always honest and straightforward in his dealings with employees and suppliers. I will remember him fondly.
George Allen McCahey, 85, passed away on February 5, 2019. He was born on September 28, 1933 to George L. and Mildred McCahey in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
George lived a very interesting life. He grew up in Ireland and travelled on the Queen Mary when going back and forth between Europe and America. George was very intelligent and graduated from high school at the age of 16. He received his Bachelor’s degree in English from Eastern Baptist College. George worked for United Airlines and travelled the world from Africa to the Far East, but his favorite places to visit were Ireland and Cape May, New Jersey. He retired from United Airlines in 1989. George also served his country in the Marine Corps. He loved to read, watch history movies, and travel.
George is survived by his wife of 63 years, Betty McCahey; his children Keith McCahey, Mitch (Caroline) McCahey, Eileen (Brian) Janiga, George (Suzy) McCahey Jr., and Elizabeth (Larry) Panella; his grandchildren Daniella, Mitchell Jr, Angelina, Quintton, Quiyarra, Santiago, Marslina, Shawnesy, Ryan, Daniel, Shannen, Matthew, Melanie, Rebecca, Jaimee, Rachel, Andrew, Melissa, Evan, Jacob, Joey, Nick, Tony, Rosemary, and Mia; and his great-grandchildren Anya Heldt and Allessandra Panella.
George is preceded in death by his parents and his granddaughter Karleena (Bada).
