In loving memory of Kumaran Mayuran Radhakrishnan who sadly passed away on 24th July 2020
Kumaran was born on 19 Augustst 1994 in Melbourne, Australia. Growing up in Glen Waverley, Victoria with his older sister Mayuri, Kumaran excelled at sports and in his education. Kumsy, or Moose, as he was better known, was the exemplar of a perfect child. He was studious, intelligent, sporty and well-rounded in all facets of his life.
After briefly attending Glen Waverley Secondary College, Kumaran was accepted into one of the most prestigious selective entry schools in Australia, Melbourne High School. Not only did he outclass his peers academically, he climbed to the highest echelons as a student by becoming the President of the Student Representative Council, an exceptionally esteemed leadership position reserved for only the most elite and finest students. This was a clear testament to the level of respect Kumaran commanded from his peers and teachers.
In addition to these incredible academic feats, he also represented Victoria in state cross-country competitions and blasted the school cross-country record in 2010, which is yet to be beaten. Kumaran was also an active breakdancer and loved to go to the gym. It was fair to say he left an indelible mark at Melbourne High and will be remembered there as one of the most impactful and influential alumni to ever have walked their halls.
Kumaran fittingly graduated high school and commenced a degree in Medicine up in sunny Townsville. He was always passionate about giving back and adding true value to the broader community and followed his heart’s calling in his mission to save lives. Here, Kumaran forged enduring connections with all of the people he met and touched the hearts of almost everyone who was lucky enough to be in his presence. Whether you had known him his whole life, or for just 5 minutes, Kumaran would have treated you like a brother or sister. His larger than life personality and undying positivity flourished as he travelled the world. From Asia to Europe, Kumaran traversed the entire world, touching the lives of countless more people, and accruing unforgettable memories.
Kumaran lived every day to the fullest. Despite any personal struggles, he always managed to transcend the curve balls life threw at him. He was always smiling; he was always up for a laugh. He was always loyal and he always had your back. Kumaran was a one-of-a-kind human being that graced the world with his existence. We are indebted to him for making us better humans. He has gone too soon and will be forever missed. Kumaran was an angel in human form and is now resting peacefully with his beloved mum in heaven.
Kumaran’s family and friends are warmly invited to attend his farewell ceremony that will be held in the Lakeview Chapel, Albany Creek Crematorium. 400 Albany Creek Road, Bridgeman Downs Thursday 6th Augustst 2020. Commencing at 3:30 Pm
