There is no family nearby to help, and keeping up the yard is more than their health allows right now. Steady help like this lets a neighbor stay in the home they love.
Their family is out of state and cannot get here, and the mower is ready — it just needs someone to run it. A hand from someone nearby would take a real weight off their shoulders.
