We mourn the passing of our dear friend Raju (Raj) Malladi whose sense of humor, warmth, and kindness touched the lives of everyone around him. A deeply sincere human being at heart, an avid sports fan Raju found profound joy in the company of his beloved family and cherished friends. His devotion to his wife, son, and daughter was unwavering, and his gentle affection extended to all children, with whom he delighted in spending time—playing, talking, and learning together.

Raju's home was always open, a place filled with laughter and hospitality, where friends felt truly welcome. His joy in visiting others and enjoying each other's company was matched only by his sincerity and generosity. As a friend, Raju was always ready to help with everything he had, no matter the time or effort.  Raju's presence enriched our lives, and wonderful memories of him will remain with us always. We will deeply miss his sense of humor, his gracious hospitality, and his appreciation for deep friendships. May his soul rest in peace, and may we honor his legacy by embracing the warmth and kindness he so freely gave to all.

He is survived by his wife (Manjula Malladi) son (Prateek Malladi) and daughter (Anika Malladi).

Services were held on Tuesday, December 2, 2025, at Barr Funeral Home.
