Friendly visitor needed for a 77-year-old neighbor in Marseille
Colette lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Colette, who's 77. Colette lives alone in Marseille, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives 526 kilometers away.
Colette loves birdwatching, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Saturday 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.

Take care. Shared it with a few friends. My neighbor in Embakasi donated after I showed her your page. All the best!
Good luck, Nicolas. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We're a small family in Glasgow but we're thinking of you.
