THE death of radio presenter Ali Booker yesterday is desperately sad news.
She had entertained the county for two decades on BBC Radio Oxford and Jack FM, and had previously overcome cancer.
She coped with the disease’s return with great courage and dignity and her on-air cancer diaries rightly won industry awards.
Even then she showed great humility but we expect she knew that how she approached her disease will have helped many across our county.
That is a magnificent epitaph.
