The mother-of-two who tragically fell to her death on Mother s Day from a scenic waterfall has been named as Cairns woman Milada Zak.
The 58-year-old was in the company of her children and one of their partners at Windin Falls near Cairns, Far North Queensland, at about 1pm on Sunday when it s believed she slipped and was knocked unconscious, before the rushing water washed her across the edge and down the 50m drop.
Her friend Zoe Nielsen posted a tribute to Ms Zak on Facebook which read: At home, a candle burning, staring into the void, in total disbelief. My heart is filled with so much sadness. so lost for words.
