A weekly visit for Marisol, 91, who lives alone in Celaya

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

Celaya
I'm writing for my neighbor Marisol, who's 91. Marisol lives alone in Celaya, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives several hours away. Marisol loves opera, 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. Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

                      Praying for you, Manuel. Hope you get there. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
