As part of The LA Group’s 1+ pro bono giveback, Mike Ingersoll volunteered to design an intimate retreat to honor Heather Mallozzi, a beloved community member, after she lost her long battle with cancer.
Heather’s interest in meditation and healthy living inspired the space. Her visions and values live on through all those who find respite in the looping walkways and running water.

“An energetic woman, known for bringing together disparate opinions and redefining Malta’s development, wouldn’t want her friends to wallow in grief. Instead, to honor her spirit and vigor, she will be memorialized with a peaceful sanctuary, a parting gift to the town she loved.”
