A weekly visit for Skylar, 74, who lives alone in Fresno

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

I'm writing for my neighbor Skylar, who's 74. Skylar lives alone in Fresno, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country. Skylar loves chess, 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. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

  • Rooting for you, David. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. I went through something like this 6 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Nsukka
