Could you share an hour a week with Osamu?

Looking for a friendly person in Osaka to visit Osamu once a week.

Osaka
I'm writing for my neighbor Osamu, who's 89. Osamu lives alone in Osaka, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives 826 kilometers away. Osamu loves local history, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Monday 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. Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

    Sending good thoughts. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor in Strasbourg donated after I showed her your page. Love from Strasbourg.
