Friendly visitor needed for an 87-year-old neighbor in Duque de Caxias
Regina lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Regina, who's 87. Regina lives alone in Duque de Caxias, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away.
Regina loves chess, 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Sending love, Jorge. Your post was clear and honest. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care.
Hope you get there. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
