Family and friends have said their final goodbyes to a "happy", "cheeky" 27-year-old after his death earlier this year.
Jamie Grant disappeared from his Whickham home in February. His loved ones "held on to hope" for as long as they could, trawling the streets and countryside in a bid to find him.
But they were devastated when his body was found near the River Derwent in March, nearly a month after he went missing.
