Looking for a friendly person in Allentown to visit Yamini once a week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Yamini, who's 79. Yamini lives alone in Allentown, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away.
Yamini loves chess, 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 never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Wishing you peace. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Take care.
Wishing you the best, Mukesh. Looking forward to the next update. I have a 15 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Greetings from Minneapolis.
Wishing you peace. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. We're a small family in Mansoura but we're thinking of you.
Sending good thoughts, Mukesh. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side
