SHOLEH: Speaking up for seniors

I want to thank Sholeh Patrick for her column in the Coeur d’Alene Press on Feb. 25. She explained excellently what most seniors are experiencing with the COVID situation and where our minds and some people’s finances are — and “it’s not simply a matter of tech unfamiliarity…and not everyone has someone who is helping them.”

I agree, “More businesses and services need the option of phone lines with real humans at the other end” to serve seniors, as well as those who don’t have the money to spend on new equipment! I also agree to “give up some of that online ‘convenience’ to return the favor” to people who need it for whatever reason.
