I am so saddened at the passing of Malti.. My family knew the Zalavadias when my father Douglas DeWerth and Jayant worked together at American Gas Association Labs .. we had dinner and met Malti .. As a 12 year old girl I was fascinated with her stories of a girl living in India.. she was kind and gracious and loving .. I am 71 years old now and my father is 92 and I have never forgotten the company and the treasured gift of a small Taj Mahal which reminds me of the Zalavadia family.. Much love to Jay and family.. you will all never be forgotten.. Most sincerely Shirley DeWerth Cyples..

It is with much sadness that I read of Malti passing.. My family met the Zalavadias when my father Douglas DeWerth and Jayant worked together at American Gas Association Labs.. We had dinner and met Malti .. she was a kind, gracious beautiful woman who radiated love and welcoming.. her stories of living in India kept this 12 year old girl amazed.. I am 71 years old now and my father is 92.. I have never forgotten the Zalavadia family ! My Taj Mahal sits on my shelf which was a gift from them .. May the family be blessed with peace and sweet memories .. Thank you Jay and family for your friendship.. ❤️
