A weekly visit for Leonardo, 72, who lives alone in Iztapalapa

Looking for a friendly person in Iztapalapa to visit Leonardo once a week.

Iztapalapa
I'm writing for my neighbor Leonardo, who's 72. Leonardo lives alone in Iztapalapa, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives 897 kilometers away. Leonardo loves cricket, 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. Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
