The family of a former governor-general who resigned over his handling of child sexual abuse in the Anglican church has reflected on the shadow cast over his final years.
Peter Hollingworth served as the Archbishop of Brisbane for more than a decade before being appointed governor-general in 2001.
He died after a fall on May 19, aged 91, and was farewelled at a requiem eucharist at Christ Church, in Melbourne's South Yarra, on Friday.
