Companionship wanted: Emilio's knitting and a cup of tea
Looking for a friendly person in San Diego to visit Emilio once a week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Emilio, who's 75. Emilio lives alone in San Diego, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country.
Emilio loves knitting, 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
