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

I'm writing for my neighbor Violet, who's 78. Violet lives alone in Albany, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives several hours away.
Violet loves knitting, 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.
Thank you so much.
