Looking for a friendly person in Birmingham to visit Maverick once a week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Maverick, who's 94. Maverick lives alone in Birmingham, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives several hours away. Maverick 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.

    Wishing you peace, Bennett. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Thinking of Birmingham.

    • Thinking of you, Bennett. Hope the doctors have good news. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it

      • get well soon. Put this on a community board in Chicago this morning. Take care
