Krishan was born in Karachi, India on May 19, 1940, as the eldest son of Nandiram and Parmeshwari Tawney. He was the beloved husband of Saroj for over 50 years, a devoted father to Leena and Neetu, cherished father-in-law to Tarun and Ravi, and loving grandfather to Shaan and Sonali. Krishan was also a dear brother to Padma, Sushma (deceased), Rattan, Suresh, Kamal, and Reshma.

In 1969, Krishan moved to the United States and worked as an engineer at Bechtel for 35 years before retiring. Throughout his life, Krishan touched the lives of many with his kindness, generosity, and love. He was a man of great strength and character and will be deeply missed by all who knew him.
