Melb mourners farewell Karen Ristevski

Friends and family have arrived at a church to farewell Melbourne mum Karen Ristevski, two weeks after her remains were discovered in country Victoria.

Dozens of floral tributes which had been laid at the front of St John's Uniting Church in Essendon were loaded into a hearse as mourners paid their final respects.

Ms Ristevski's remains were found in Mt Macedon bushland in February, almost eight months after she disappeared in June last year.
