Mr. C. Krishnamoorthy last resided in London, U.K. He was born in Jaffna Uduppiddy, Srilanka. Peacefully passed away on 03rd AUG 2023.

He was the beloved son of late father Kandiah Chelliah (Director of Samuel Sons & Company Ltd, Colombo, SL) and late mother, Rassamma Chelliah.

Brother of dearest late sister, Parameswari (Thavamani) Chelliah and brother of baby boy (who unfortunately passed away when two years old).

Chelliah Krishnamoorthy is survived by his wife, Ratnaranee Krishnamoorthy (married for 54 years), his two loving and devoted children, daughter, Sashikala Muzalewski (wife of John Muzalewski, U.K), and son, Pragash Krishnamoorthy (husband of Siyamini R Krishnamoorthy, Canada).

He was also the joyous grandfather to: John C Muzalewski (Jnr), Toby J Muzalewski, both of U.K, and Nikhilesh L Krishnamoorthy, Lakshmi S Krishnamoorthy, both of Canada.

He attended school in Colombo, where he also completed his University degree. While in Colombo, he worked on major projects for Samuel Sons & Co. His father then encouraged him to travel to England, and came by P&O Ferry.  Once in England, Krishnamoorthy became an accomplished Civil Engineer, and ultimately attained the distinction and entry, into one of the world’s most respected and prestigious professional engineering associations: the Institution of Civil Engineers (I.C.E). It was during this time, that he married Ratnaranee (of the Kanagaratnam family) on 2 Feb 1969, later blessed with two children: Sashikala and Pragash.

While working for several international civil engineering companies based in the U.K, Krishnamoorthy was fortunate and blessed to have had numerous opportunities to travel the world, working as a Senior Chartered Civil Engineering Consultant, on major projects in several Continents. Through this work, he built many friendships, both professionally and culturally. Mr. C. Krishnamoorthy was one of the founding members of the Archway Hindu Temple, in Highgate, which opened on 2nd December 1979.

He was also a prominent member and very active devotee participant of Sri Raja Rajeswary Amman Temple in Stoneleigh, established in 1994. Krishnamoorthy was also a deeply devoted member of the Wimbledon Sai Organization for many decades, participating in bhajana, into his 80’s. With his boundless energy, enthusiasm, drive, motivation for all, and perfection of details, he always encouraged everyone that he interacted with, to always ‘try your hardest’ and ‘never give up’.

His affection towards others, deep loyalty and devotion to his family, significant and symbolic participations in Temple and Sai Community activities, will be deeply missed, but always treasured and remembered by family, friends and the Community.
