A weekly visit for Hye-jin, 79, who lives alone in Louisville

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

I'm writing for my neighbor Hye-jin, who's 79. Hye-jin lives alone in Louisville, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away. Hye-jin loves baking, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Wednesday 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.
