Companionship wanted: Skylar's crossword puzzles and a cup of tea

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

I'm writing for my neighbor Skylar, who's 94. Skylar lives alone in Raleigh, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives several hours away. Skylar loves crossword puzzles, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Saturday 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.

  • Thanks for sharing this, Angel. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Blessings.
