Motorcycle Riders Join Funeral Procession for BBC Radio 2 DJ Johnnie Walker

Motorcycle Riders Join Funeral Procession for BBC Radio 2 DJ Johnnie Walker

Motorcycle enthusiasts paid their respects to BBC radio personality Johnnie Walker by joining his funeral procession as he was laid to rest.

Among the attendees at St Peter’s Church in Shaftesbury, Dorset, on Friday were Robert Plant, the lead singer of Led Zeppelin, and Walker’s former colleagues from BBC Radio 2.

After the memorial service, friends and family, including Walker’s wife Tiggy—who wore pink—gathered to witness a cortege of Harley Davidson riders escorting the DJ’s hearse.

His passing at the age of 79 was announced on Radio 2 by Bob Harris on New Year’s Eve, who had taken over Walker’s Sounds Of The 70s show in November.

Following the service, Radio 2 presenters Tony Blackburn and Jeremy Vine conversed alongside their former colleague Ken Bruce, who left the BBC in 2023 to join Bauer’s Greatest Hits Radio.

Present at the funeral were BBC and ITV sports presenter John Inverdale, former BBC radio host Simon Mayo, Harris, radio personality Paul Gambaccini, BBC Radio 2 presenter Jo Whiley, and Green Wing actress Pippa Haywood.

Walker retired due to health issues, stepping away from his Radio 2 show The Rock Show last October after being diagnosed with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF).

Wakeman had previously played a song at the memorial for former Countdown host Richard Whiteley.

On December 31, Tiggy honored him by recalling his “charming, humorous self to the end,” adding, “bless that extraordinary husband of mine, who is now in a place of peace.”

According to the NHS, Walker’s condition, IPF, is one in which “the lungs become scarred and breathing becomes increasingly difficult,” and currently “no treatment” is available to stop or reverse it.

“The 2024 Toys for Tots campaign was a tremendous success,” said Carter Pavey, Vice President of Marketing. “We extend our heartfelt gratitude to our guests, team members, tribal community, Harley Davidson of Hudsonville, and the Lakeshore Marine Corps for helping us spread joy and love to children in West Michigan who need it the most.”

For many years, Gun Lake Casino has collaborated with the Lakeshore Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots program to deliver holiday joy to children in need across West Michigan. This year, the Lakeshore Marine Corps Reserve partnered with Harley-Davidson of Hudsonville to host a toy giveaway event on Saturday, December 21.

Gun Lake Casino is a leading gaming and entertainment destination conveniently located off Exit 61 on U.S. 131, halfway between Grand Rapids and Kalamazoo. The casino is nearing the completion of its $300 million expansion, which features a 252-room luxury hotel, a full-service spa, meeting spaces, and more dining options, all set to open in March 2025.

A standout feature of the expansion is the Wawyé Oasis, a stunning 32,000-square-foot glass atrium that will maintain a tropical climate year-round. This innovative space will include a cutting-edge entertainment center with several pools and will serve as a vibrant venue for nightlife, live concerts, and banquets. The Wawyé Oasis is scheduled to open in May 2025.

Can we take a minute to talk about tribal sovereignty?

Sovereignty is more than a concept – it’s the cornerstone of Native nations’ right to govern, safeguard our lands, and uphold our cultures. Each story we publish reinforces tribal sovereignty.

Unlike mainstream media, we focus on Indigenous voices and report directly from Native communities. When we address land rights, water protection, or tribal governance, we’re not just sharing news – we’re documenting our contemporary history and safeguarding our future.

Our journalism is fueled by readers, not shareholders. If you recognize the significance of Native-led media in preserving tribal sovereignty, we invite you to support our work today.

Currently, your contributions are doubled. A generous $35,000 matching fund means every dollar you donate throughout December 2024 will help amplify Native voices and protect sovereignty.

No paywalls. No corporate owners. Just independent, Indigenous journalism.
