Friendly visitor needed for a 93-year-old neighbor in Laredo
Emiliano lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Emiliano, who's 93. Emiliano lives alone in Laredo, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives several hours away.
Emiliano loves opera, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Sunday 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Stay strong, Emilio. Gave what I could, wish it was more. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. God bless.
Praying for you, Emilio. This could happen to any of us.
hang in there, Emilio. Shared this with my family. My husband and I read this together.
praying for you, Emilio. I hope things turn around soon. Blessings.
