ABC staff and audiences are in mourning after the death of long-time regional radio host and respected ABC Mildura-Swan Hill and Wimmera chief-of-staff Sarah Tomlinson.
Sarah was on annual leave in South Australia with her dog Harley when she suffered a fatal anaphylactic reaction this week after a life-long battle with her health. She was 40.
Sarah started her radio career as a 14-year-old community broadcaster in her home town of Mildura on the Murray River in Victoria's Sunraysia region.
