Could you share an hour a week with Matteo?

Looking for a friendly person in Bergamo to visit Matteo once a week.

Bergamo
I'm writing for my neighbor Matteo, who's 79. Matteo lives alone in Bergamo, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives 884 kilometers away. Matteo loves old films, 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. Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
