Mr Celantano is being remembered as a talented football player, a larrikin, and a loyal friend and son by those who loved him.
The young man went missing after going for a swim in a waterway near where he was staying with a group of 10 friends from his footy club around 5.30am.
His body was found by divers three hours later in Broadbeach Waters, close to where he disappeared.
