FULL DESCRIPTION

Step into a living history as 92-year-old Jeanne Cahill shares her remarkable journey in Call Me Jeanne, a memoir that brings to life the heartaches, humor, and hopes of growing up in Dixie Union, Georgia, during the Great Depression and World War II.

Hosted at The Cypress in Hapeville, this special book launch offers more than a reading—it’s a rare chance to meet a woman whose life has spanned nearly a century of change, service, and storytelling. Jeanne’s voice is as vibrant as ever as she reflects on childhood joys, wartime struggles, and the enduring strength of family.

Come for the stories, stay for the conversation. Enjoy light refreshments, ask questions during a Q&A, and take home a signed copy of a book that preserves a vital piece of Southern history. Whether you're a history buff, a book lover, or simply curious, this is an afternoon you won’t want to miss.

Signs will be posted for parking and entrance.
