Anthony is a 68 year old man with a mild developmental disability. He is a "people person" and loves to have a friend for conversation and company. As he is aging he relies on being in a wheel chair but would enjoy a friend to visit him at his group home to play games or watch a movie. He belongs to the Knights of Columbus and looks forward to attending the meetings, especially enjoying the camaraderie and friendship. However, Anthony would benefit from an ongoing on to one friendship. We would love you to meet him!
