Nour Marbany, 35, was allegedly a passenger in a Holden Commodore travelling on Hawksview St about 5pm when it collided with a reversing Hyundai i30 on April 15.
The Holden rolled and hit an unoccupied parked HiLux ute.
Despite the efforts of NSW Ambulance paramedics, Nour Marbany died at the scene.
Nour ‘s wife wrote a touching tribute following the incident, with an Arabic phrase from the Koran.
“You’ve shattered me into a million pieces. Inshallah [If God wills] I can be strong enough to raise your six kids,” she wrote.
“Indeed, to Allah we belong and to Allah we shall return.”
Several friends and family offered comfort to Mrs Zreika and her family after their loss.
Hawksview St resident Jemma Achi said she heard multiple “bangs” when the car flipped and crashed close to her residence.
A 37-year-old male driver of the Hyundai was uninjured and underwent mandatory testing at Westmead Hospital.
The road was closed for about six hours while police carried out their investigation.
A maximum penalty of 10 years in jail applies for the charges.
