Could you share an hour a week with Álvaro?
Looking for a friendly person in Riverside to visit Álvaro once a week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Álvaro, who's 79. Álvaro lives alone in Riverside, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away.
Álvaro loves local history, 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.
