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

I'm writing for my neighbor Sherika, who's 91. Sherika lives alone in Kingston, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away.
Sherika loves local history, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Wednesday 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.
Glad we found this place.

good luck, Wayne. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My husband and I read this together
