A weekly visit for Alejandra, 73, who lives alone in San Diego

An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Alejandra is asking for.

San Diego
I'm writing for my neighbor Alejandra, who's 73. Alejandra lives alone in San Diego, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives several hours away. Alejandra loves crossword puzzles, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Sunday afternoon, would mean the world. We can also arrange a phone call if you can't visit in person. All visitors will be introduced by me and I'll be there at the first meeting. I'll share references and, if you'd like, a short orientation from the local befriending charity. No special skills are needed - just kindness and patience. Thanks for being kind about this.
