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

I'm writing for my neighbor Travis, who's 90. Travis lives alone in San Diego, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away.
Travis loves opera, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Thursday 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'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
