Benjamin Furze died and two people were injured in an accident on Russley Rd, Christchurch, on December 30.
McKinlay said Furze was a passenger in the car when the “horrible” accident occurred.
She wanted the driver to be held accountable.
“I cannot forgive them for what they have done.”
Furze was her best friend, “my rock, my everything,” and her life had “changed forever,” she said.
“It is very sad that he did not deserve to go like this … he just got out of jail and was changing his life for the better for his children.
“He was a hardworking, kind and loving man with whom we made many memories,” she said.
Police were continuing to investigate the circumstances of the accident.
“Our thoughts are with his family and loved ones,” they said in a statement.
