Companionship wanted: Orly's cricket and a cup of tea

Orly lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Orly, who's 85. Orly lives alone in Haifa, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives several hours away. Orly loves cricket, 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. Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
