A weekly visit for Theodore, 78, who lives alone in Winston-Salem
An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Theodore is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Theodore, who's 78. Theodore lives alone in Winston-Salem, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives 346 kilometers away.
Theodore loves chess, 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.
I hope life is good to you.

Good luck, Parker. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Love from Nottingham
Thinking of you and your family, Parker. Hope you get there. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Blessings.
