Tributes are flowing for a beloved mum who tragically died after an accident involving a ride-on lawnmower in North Queensland.

Paramedics rushed to the scene, where they found her in critical condition with head and chest injuries.

However, unfortunately, she was unable to be saved.

It comes after a man was killed in another lawnmower accident at a property in Tallegalla, west of Ipswich, last Monday.

Mrs Walker and her husband, Darren, are well-known farmers in the Burdekin region.

Her sudden death has left many community members in shock and many took to Facebook to share fond memories of Kylie and offer their condolences.

“Can’t stop thinking about you Kylie, so, so sad, taken too soon, rest peacefully,” one person commented.

“Rest easy, beautiful lady. You truly were loved,” said another.

“So sorry to hear the sad news, condolences to Darren and family.”
