Companionship wanted: Graciela's birdwatching and a cup of tea
Looking for a friendly person in Fresno to visit Graciela once a week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Graciela, who's 80. Graciela lives alone in Fresno, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country.
Graciela loves birdwatching, 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 hope life is good to you.

Take care, Jimena. This could happen to any of us. Thinking of Fresno.
Wishing you the best, Jimena. Wishing Graciela a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Sent it to 29 people at work. Take care.
Sending good thoughts, Jimena. Shared it with a few friends. After 15 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Love from Moscow.
