A weekly visit for Naveen, 85, who lives alone in Thane
Naveen lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Naveen, who's 85. Naveen lives alone in Thane, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives several hours away.
Naveen loves crossword puzzles, 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'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

You're not alone, Deepa. Looking forward to the next update
rooting for you, Deepa. Get well soon. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Kobe
thinking of you, Deepa. Looking forward to the next update. After 24 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless.
Wishing you the best, Deepa. Your post was clear and honest. Thinking of Thane.
