BABY Chardonnae Breeze has been robbed of her hardworking father after a hit-and-run driver left him for dead.

Jerry Ngaronoa was killed crossing the Hume Highway at Casula, in Sydney's southwest, yesterday.

He died just two weeks before his 16th birthday, leaving his five-month-old daughter and de facto wife Sincerely "Ceallie" Karaitiana-Turnbull, also 15.

Ms Karaitiana-Turnbull vowed to stay strong for her baby after seeing the body of the once promising rugby player on the road.

"I am young but I have to be strong, I can't let my baby down, I can't let myself down. I can't let her see me this way," she said.
