In loving memory of Christopher Thorne
5/29/1969 - 1/16/2015

Location: Roanoke, Virginia

Visits: 16,984

This memorial was created in honor of Christopher "DJ Big Dose" Thorne of Roanoke, Virginia.

Christopher Thorne, a radio personality and promotions director at The Vibe (WVBE-FM, 100.1/97.7, 610 AM).

Thorne, who also went by Nigel Christopher, hosted a midday show as “DJ Big Dose.” Born on May 29, 1969, in Brooklyn, New York, he became interested in radio after watching his cousins perform turntable tricks, according to his Facebook page.

In 1989, Thorne began working at a community radio station in Atlanta. He later worked at WBHH in Norfolk, which was the first East Coast all hip-hop station. He joined The Vibe, which serves the Roanoke-Lynchburg market, on Oct. 22, 2012.

Dose was loved by many and will be dearly missed by all friends and family.

My heart is heavy but I know God makes no mistakes. He kept me going with the laughs & good music on my way home daily. He had me out of my seat dancing at every Vibe 100 event that I attend. You will never be forgotten & family are in my prayers. Lakisha
