Friendly visitor needed for a 77-year-old neighbor in São Paulo

Looking for a friendly person in São Paulo to visit Alexandre once a week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Alexandre, who's 77. Alexandre lives alone in São Paulo, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives 762 kilometers away. Alexandre loves opera, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Friday 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. Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

    hope things get better soon, Elaine. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Put this on a community board in Atlanta this morning. Take care.

          Praying for you. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Love from Bakersfield.

            Wishing you the best. Shared it with a few friends. We're a small family in Gujranwala but we're thinking of you. Take care.
