Faber, VA -- A foundation in Virginia is confirming the deaths of a man and his teenage daughter in the terrorist attacks in India.
A spokeswoman with the Synchronicity Foundation said Friday Alan Scherr and his 13-year-old daughter, Naomi, were killed while they were in a cafe in Mumbai.
Bobbie Garvey says the 58-year-old father and his daughter were identified by colleagues. The two lived at the Nelson County foundation, about 15 miles southwest of Charlottesville, which promotes a high-tech form of meditation.
Garvey said Scherr is a Maryland native and a former college professor.
Garvey said four other members of a 25-member delegation from Synchronicity were injured and are recovering.
The Chabad-Lubavitch movement has confirmed that a New York rabbi and his wife are also among the dead in the India terrorist attack.
A spokesman, Rabbi Zalman Schmotkin, says Brooklyn based Rabbi Gavriel Noach Holtzberg and his Israeli wife, Rivka, have been killed in Mumbai. They ran the movement's local headquarters, which was one of 10 sites attacked.
The couple's toddler son, Moshe Holtzberg, was taken out of the center by an employee, and is now with his grandparents.
A chain of militant attacks across India's financial center that began Wednesday have left at least 143 people dead.
