A weekly visit for Ezekiel, 92, who lives alone in Coventry

Ezekiel lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Ezekiel, who's 92. Ezekiel lives alone in Coventry, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives several hours away. Ezekiel loves local history, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Friday 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. I hope life is good to you.
