A mother-of-two killed in an horrific head-on collision on a South Australian highway was driving her children home from swimming lessons when the crash happened.
Mhai Hashemi, 45, was killed instantly when her car slammed into a B-double just before 7.30pm on Tuesday night.
Her son Arian, 12 and daughter, Sayde, 10, were in the back seat at the time, and were badly injured.
Mrs Hashemi's distraught husband Sayed told Daily Mail Australia he was forced to break the devastating news to his children after the crash that 'mum wound't be coming home'.
'Their crying was unstoppable,'Mr Hashemi said.
'It's going to be hard for them,' he said. '[They're] very sad, they're very attached to their mum, they're missing their mother deeply.'
The farmer said his wife was humble, helpful, fully involved with the local community and had a 'strong character'.
'She was a role model as a woman in this small country town,' he said.
