Peter's brother used his eulogy to deliver a poignant message to the NSW Premier Chris Minns and Prime Minister Anthony Albanese on gun reform.

"Gun reform alone will not solve hatred or extremism, but an antisemite without a gun is just a hate-filled person," he said.

Peter was a highly decorated police detective as well as a loving family man and pillar of the Randwick rugby club.

Virginia said at his funeral: "Every text message, WhatsApp and voicemail from Peter begins with 'hi darling' and ends with 'I love you'."
