The sister of missing Alex Johnson says she hopes he is looking down on them as they continue their search of the River Tyne.
Alex, from Chester-le-Street, is believed to have fallen from the Tyne Bridge in the early hours of Tuesday morning.
A large group met up at Newcastle's Quayside on Saturday in a bid to search the river and bring Alex home.
Family, friends and those who just wanted to help scoured the water throughout the day.
The search continued on Easter Sunday, with sister Ashleigh Marr and Alex's family travelling over the river on a boat.
Ashleigh, 29, said she cannot give up the search for her younger brother.
She said: "We have been out on the boat and done the full length of the river up and down and we still have not found anything.
"It would just mean everything to our family to find him now, it is all we can concentrate on.
"All I want to do is find him and bring him out of the water.
"It is getting so much harder everyday that goes by.
"It's just so important to the family now."
The 24-year-old was last seen on the Tyne Bridge on Tuesday at around 2.15am.

He was previously thought to have been wearing a green parka coat but the family now know he was wearing a black North Face T-shirt, grey joggers and blue Nike trainers when he went into the water.
Ashleigh said the public support was "really encouraging" with people going out on boats, using drones to look over the water and searching with binoculars.
She said: "I just hope he's looking down now and I hope he can see how many people are here looking for him and who care about him and how many lives he really did touch.
"I hope he can see how much he's going to be missed."
Doting uncle Alex "absolutely adored" Ashleigh's two children and was described as having "a heart of gold".
"Everyone always says he's the life and soul of the party and always lit up the room," Ashleigh added.
The family have been contacted by a speedboat owner who has given them use of his boat until Alex has been found.
Until then the family have urged others to "please keep a look out" for Alex when they are near the river.
Northumbria Police confirmed the force received a report of a concern for welfare for a man on the Tyne Bridge at 2.15am on Tuesday.
Inquiries remain ongoing, and Northumbria Police has urged anyone with information to contact 101 quoting reference number 60 16/04/19.
