Companionship wanted: Alberto's cricket and a cup of tea
Alberto lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Alberto, who's 78. Alberto lives alone in Latina, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives several hours away.
Alberto loves cricket, 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.
Glad we found this place.

Thinking of you, Lorenzo. Wishing Alberto a smooth procedure and a full recovery.
Hope things get better soon, Lorenzo. Wishing Alberto a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
Sending love, Lorenzo. Hope you get there. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Blessings.
Hope things get better soon, Lorenzo. Your post was clear and honest. All the best.
Rooting for you, Lorenzo. Shared this with my family. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Latina.
