Student Caroline Everest had 'a zest for life', funeral told
An 18-year-old university student who died on her way home from a night out has been described as "a young woman who had so much to give, so much to live for" at her funeral.
Hundreds of people packed into the chapel at Grenoside Crematorium in Sheffield to pay their respects to Caroline Everest, known as Carrie.
Miss Everest's body was discovered in a river in Sheffield on November 24.
The Sheffield Hallam University student was reported missing after leaving a nightclub two days before.
The Rev Phil Batchford told mourners, led by Miss Everest's parents Val and Chris, about the "privilege we all shared from having known her".
The family led mourners into the chapel to the song She Will Be Loved, by Maroon 5, with its opening lyric: "Beauty queen of only eighteen."
