Companionship wanted: Logan's baking and a cup of tea
Looking for a friendly person in Rockford to visit Logan once a week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Logan, who's 83. Logan lives alone in Rockford, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away.
Logan loves baking, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Sunday 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.

So sorry you're going through this, Autumn. Hope this works out for you. I'm in customer support myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you!
take care, Autumn. Hope this works out for you. After 9 years in logistics I know how hard it is to ask for anything. Blessings.
Thanks for sharing this. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. I have a 13 year old who wants to send good wishes too!
I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Wish I lived closer to Depok so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Rockford
Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. I went through something like this 7 years ago and strangers helped me out
