Family bid farewell at tragic teen's funeral - video report
THERE was standing room only as family and friends paid their last respects to Kieran Lindsey - on what would have been his 19th birthday.
The tragic teen passed away after taking ecstasy at a party last week and over a hundred mourners turned out to say goodbye to a boy who 'filled the room with love and laughter.'

His coffin arrived draped in an Arsenal flag and surrounded by flowers from his family, who followed in a black limousine.
The service was led by Mr Cooksey, who thanked the crowd for attending the ceremony, before tributes from Kieran's older sister Adele to her 'baby brother' and from his best friends were read out.
Afterwards a birthday balloon was released by Kieran's family to mark what would have been his 19th birthday.
