We have had many messages asking about Bernie’s headstone and so we are sharing it here today. If anyone is passing through and would like to visit, it is located in Buckingham Cemetery.

Happy Birthday, Bernie. 🎈 He’d no doubt be singing ‘when I’m seventy-four’ about the house today if he was here!
Please raise your glass and play your favourite Bernie tunes today in his honour. Oh how we miss him, every single day. ❤️🎸😎
It’s hard to believe it’s been a whole year since Bernie’s death. It's been a surreal and emotional year, but one in which we’ve been extremely fortunate to have the support of his faithful fans.
Remembering Bernie today, and always. ❤️
Fran, Charlotte and Olivia
Here’s a song for ya! One of my very first gigs, back in 1981, was Whitesnake at the sacred space of rock that was the Hammersmith Odeon, so last night’s wonderful @SteelhouseFest tribute to the late Bernie Marsden was an emotional, sing-a-long romp down memory lane.
Last night @SteelhouseFest I watched Bernie All Stars incl Toby Jepson, Luke Morley, Chris Buck, Jim Kirkpatrick and loads more talented musicians pay tribute to Bernie Marsden and play a whole set mainly of pre 1987 Whitesnake, it was absolutely glorious!
Tonight up the mountain in Ebbw Vale, Wales - BernieFest at @SteelhouseFest.
The headline show in celebration of the life and musical legacy of Bernie Marsden.
Here’s a shot of Bernie at the festival in 2019, playing his Sid Poole Custom #2.
‘See you out there, folks!’ ❤️😎🎸
Bernie absolutely loved it ‘up the mountain’ at Steelhouse - so much so that he wrote a song called ‘Steelhouse Mountain’ for his most recent album, ‘Working Man’. Not to mention his car keyring was a Steelhouse one! It was a very special place to him. ⛰️❤️🏴
In two weeks’ time on Friday 26th July, Steelhouse Festival kicks off with BERNIE FEST - the Friday night headline show in celebration of the life and musical legacy of Bernie.
We - his family - are honoured by this tribute. What a night it is going to be. ⛰️❤️🎸😎🏴
Jim Kirkpatrick and Hand Of Dimes frontman Neville McDonald will be fronting Bernie's live core band with the addition of original Whitesnake bassist, Neil Murray with guests including Chris Buck, Luke Morley, FM’s Steve Overland, Toby Jepson and Elles Bailey.
“Bernie went into the studio with a host of guitars – but ended up using this £125 Squier for 95% of the sessions. It was one of the best Strats he ever played”: Inside the Bernie Marsden guitar auction – featuring rare Strats and a Greeny-esque ES-335 https://t.co/VmPZxKJyWB
