Companionship wanted: Franco's baking and a cup of tea
Franco lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.
🇮🇹 Brescia, Lombardy, Italy611 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Franco, who's 77. Franco lives alone in Brescia, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives several hours away.
Franco loves baking, 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'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Thinking of you and your family. I hope things turn around soon. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Blessings!
Get well soon. I'll check back for the next update!
