65+ Senior Looking for Friends

Im writing this on behalf of my “adopted” mom. She is in her mid sixties and moved to VB about a year ago. She’s been really struggling to make friends and would love to meet a group of people her age to hang out with, like play bingo, walk on the beach, paint, window shop etc.

She’s the sweetest person ever and I made this post because I felt really bad when I heard about it. She has one adopted son and is widowed (her husband died of cancer). I live in California so I am limited in how I can support her.

Some things she likes:

Country Music Bars and music bars in general

Playing slots at the casino and charity Bingo

Hanging out at the beach

She loves animals

Loves antiquing

Horror movies and wacky movies

Some quirks she has:

Doesn’t like wine but will drink some beer and liquor

Loves McDonald’s Iced Tea

An “iceaholic” she loves ice in her drinks

If anyone is in a supportive group, or a hobby group please reach out and let me know. I told her the Reddit community is usually pretty kind and helpful and I would post this for her.
