His plane went down on Thursday, with its wreckage spotted in the Southern Alps, near Mount Nicholson.
Tim Gibb was travelling from his hometown of Franz Josef to Rangiora, but never arrived.
He is survived by his wife Vanessa, and adult daughters Olivia and Sarah.
Olivia says her father has left a great hole in their family, and their close knit community.
He was Franz Josef's deputy chief fire officer, and the area's Civil Defence officer.
