Could you share an hour a week with Alberto?
Alberto lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Alberto, who's 72. Alberto lives alone in New York, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away.
Alberto loves local history, 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Get well soon. Love from Derry.
rooting for you. Hope this works out for you. I'm in logistics myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. All the best
wishing you peace. I hope things turn around soon. It's not much but it's yours. Thinking of New York!
You're not alone. This could happen to any of us. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of New York
take care. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. After 30 years in customer support I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
