TRIBUTES are flowing in for wellknown Gold Coast PR maven and lifelong Surfers Paradise resident Tracey McMullan.

The 52-year-old with a “beautiful bubbly personality” passed away on Saturday night after a short battle with an aggressive form of brain cancer.

Those closest to Ms McMullan took to social media on Sunday to pay their respects and share their memories.
