A Healesville resident has pleaded guilty to culpable driving causing death at the Melbourne Magistrates court on Tuesday 12 July.

In April, Monica Kellalea was charged and remanded in custody following a collision involving two cars on the Melba Highway on Sunday 6 February.

The driver of the other vehicle, 56 year old Melinda Gordon-Addison from Belgrave South, died at the scene.

Ms Gordon-Addison was driving home from a weekend away with her motorcycle club when her life ended instantly at the crash in Murrindindi.

Min, as many knew her, was remembered at her funeral as a loving wife and mother of two, who had a passion for dance, performance and all things Holden.

The ballet teacher was also part of the Belgrave-South CFA as a non-operational member for 23 years.

Ms Kellalea made no appeal for bail and will return to court in November.
