Could you share an hour a week with Maximilian?

I'm writing for my neighbor Maximilian, who's 75. Maximilian lives alone in Hannover, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away. Maximilian loves birdwatching, 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.
