A weekly visit for Arturo, 79, who lives alone in Zapopan

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

Zapopan
I'm writing for my neighbor Arturo, who's 79. Arturo lives alone in Zapopan, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives 707 kilometers away. Arturo loves cricket, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Saturday 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. Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

    • wishing you peace. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Zapopan
