A friend of mine is 88 years old, and has been an active ham since the
1940s. His license is due for renewal next year. He doesn't have an
FRN, doesn't own a computer, and doesn't have internet access.

You seem to have a computer and Internet access. Have him over for
coffee and help him get it done on your computer.

Have him bring a copy of his license and plan to take a few hours
trying to get the details straight while reading the FCC's website
help... I managed to do a change of address a while back, so I'm sure
others can figure it out too.

QST had an article in the last month or two that explains all the
steps...

Otherwise, contact the ARRL or some other VE and ask them how to go the
paper route. Most will do it for a small fee.
