A weekly visit for Craig, 87, who lives alone in San Jose
Looking for a friendly person in San Jose to visit Craig once a week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Craig, who's 87. Craig lives alone in San Jose, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away.
Craig loves old films, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Tuesday 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.
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

Keep going, Alexandra. I hope things turn around soon. After 20 years in public service I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Kasarani.
Sending strength, Alexandra. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Put this on a community board in Heliopolis this morning. Thinking of San Jose.
Keep going, Alexandra. Shared it with a few friends. Greetings from Dnipro.
