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

I'm writing for my neighbor Laura, who's 92. Laura lives alone in Montgomery, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives several hours away.
Laura loves gardening, 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Sending good thoughts, Lorenzo. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I went through something like this 7 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Istanbul.
