A weekly visit for Noah, 73, who lives alone in St. Petersburg
Looking for a friendly person in St. Petersburg to visit Noah once a week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Noah, who's 73. Noah lives alone in St. Petersburg, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country.
Noah loves birdwatching, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Monday 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
- effort
- 1 hour a week
- format
- In person in St. Petersburg

I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. After 12 years in public service I know how hard it is to ask for anything. All the best.
Sending good thoughts, Eli. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. We're a small family in Casablanca but we're thinking of you
Rooting for you, Eli. Get well soon. Put this on a community board in New York this morning. Take care.

You're not alone. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of St. Petersburg.
keep going, Eli. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Sent it to 18 people at work. Love from Mecca.
Good luck, Eli. Hope this works out for you. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
