Friendly visitor needed for a 73-year-old neighbor in Greensboro
Looking for a friendly person in Greensboro to visit Carlos once a week.
🇺🇸 Greensboro, North Carolina, United States678 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Carlos, who's 73. Carlos lives alone in Greensboro, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives several hours away.
Carlos loves baking, 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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

It takes guts to ask. Well done. I have a 12 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Take care
Hope things get better soon, Rafael. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't give up. Love from Ubud.
Best of luck, Rafael. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Love from Mississauga.
Wishing you the best. Wishing Carlos a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from Lahore.
Hope it all works out, Rafael. It takes guts to ask. Well done
