Edinburgh man's touching tribute for best pal after his unexpected death at 38
An Edinburgh man has reached his fundraising target as he prepares to take on a gruelling charity in memory of his friend who passed away almost seven-months-ago. Joseph Coghill, 40, from Morningside will be embarking on a 200-mile walk to raise funds for charities close to his late friends heart - DJ Jackmaster. Jack Revill was in an Ibiza hospital for two days before his death at the age of 38 back in October. He suffered an accidental head injury, with his family sharing an emotional post on Instagram. READ MORE: Edinburgh school friends hail 'kind and charming sportsman' after tragic passing READ MORE: Man who knew Madeleine McCann suspect makes dramatic plea to police during search Seven months later, Joseph described Jack as a man with a 'heart of gold who would do anything to help anyone'. In 2022, Jack completed the Edinburgh Half Marathon - raising funds for We Are With You - an organisation that helps people affected by drugs, alcohol and mental health problems, as well as Endometriosis UK. Now, Joseph will be raising funds for the same charities in his honour. Embarking on the journey on June 12, the 40-year-old has gone sober and gave up drugs and alcohol after his friends death. Speaking to Edinburgh Live, Joseph said: "Jack was a huge part of my self-belief and my career. When I met him, I was working in Glasgow and jack knew he was always going to be a DJ - he had the confidence, the swagger and the full package really. "It's been around seven months since he died and it's awfully sad what happened. I am actually sober - I don't drink or do drugs anymore since he died. I still have a sense of anxiety and sadness but I am trying to use that energy to do something positive. "I am just trying to remember his life and not focus too much on the negative things. He was so fun and charming - he had a real heart of gold. "He was so generous and if you needed something he would always be there to help you."

He added: "I am so happy that I have been able to raise a substantial amount of money - I am still fundraising because I haven't left yet. "It's so incredible, but I think I will be able to raise more. It's definitely been a lot of hard work on my end with the training and things but I am super amazed that I have been able to make this point Join Edinburgh Live's Whatsapp Community here and get the latest news sentstraight to your messages. "I am excited to get going now because I have been training for six months. I am a bit nervous but I know I am physically ready for this."
