Phillip Tillman has scheduled a book signing for his latest publication, “I Wanna Go Home.” The signing is scheduled at the Tillatoba Baptist Church Fellowship Hall on Saturday, July 29, from 2 to 4 p.m.
The book is a biographical account of the lives of Carolyn and Phillip Tillman and heavily weighted with his 22 years in the military. Phillip is a native of Tillatoba. Books will be available as gifts from Tillman. However if anyone wishes to make a donation by giving their gift to the church or charity of their choice in memory of Carolyn and Harvey Tillman may do so.
