Companionship wanted: Tyrone's opera and a cup of tea

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

Spanish Town
I'm writing for my neighbor Tyrone, who's 92. Tyrone lives alone in Spanish Town, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives 638 kilometers away. Tyrone loves opera, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Tuesday 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. Thanks for being kind about this.

    I hope things turn around soon. We're a small family in Gujranwala but we're thinking of you.
