We enjoyed Bala & Janki´s friendship. Bala man of few words but entire American Indian family in Baltimore community loved & respected him.
Janki & Bala introduced us to true Vedic Indian culture by starting Chinmaya Mission discourses in their home in Baltimore.
Alarms & Kartic please accept our sincere condolences. He will be missed by Baltimore community and us.
He was a true "Dev Manus( Godly Man)

Janaki and Bala were the first friends we had when we moved to Baltimore in 1983.
We all miss our very dear friends. Both of them have what they call in Tamil as Shantha swabhavam and very helpful to the community. We have such fond memories of them. Condolences to Karthik and Aparna . Geetha please include us if you are talking to her sisters .
In fact Dr. Bala was the anesthesiologist when my mom had her pacemaker replaced at St.Joseph several years ago.
Om Shanti Om Shanti

Dear Karthik and Aparna,
Our heartfelt condolences to you on the passing of your father Bala. A gentler soul, you could not find. Bala and Janaki made a wonderful couple and now they would be reunited in heaven. They (along with you two) were there first family we met in the late 80s when we moved to Maryland and the friendship that formed then flourished thereafter. We remember them fondly. They introduced us to Chinmaya Mission and Bala Vihar. We will miss Bala dearly. Take comfort in knowing that your parents are together again and will be watching all of you and smiling proudly.
With deep sympathies,
Janaki and T K Murali
