Companionship wanted: Neil's local history and a cup of tea
Looking for a friendly person in Calamba to visit Neil once a week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Neil, who's 72. Neil lives alone in Calamba, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away.
Neil loves local history, 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.
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

Wishing you the best. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Greetings from Newport.
hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Don't give up. Thinking of Calamba.
Sending love, Mark. Hope this works out for you. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. All the best
You're not alone, Mark. Shared this with my family. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
Take care. Hope this works out for you. Thinking of Calamba.
