GenX said it was " shocked and devastated beyond words" at His death.

James Hazell, Managing Director of GenX Radio, said: " To know Tim personally, as I did very closely for over 30 years, was to know a warm, caring, fun guy who myself and My Family loved dearly. We Are heartbroken by The News .

" I know His Family are enormously comforted by The Hundreds of loving messages that have been received and have asked for privacy at this devastating time. "

He added Mr Gough had come out of retirement, going back on air for the First Time in a decade, to present The Station 's breakfast show.

'Norwich fan'

One of Mr Gough's colleagues at Radio Orwell in the mid-1980s was presenter Stephen Foster , before the latter went on to work for BBC Radio Suffolk.

Foster, now at Radio Caroline , said: " I first got to know Tim when he was working behind The Scenes on the Saturday Afternoon sports show.

" We hit it off immediately and the banter never stopped in all Our Time at Radio Orwell and [Bury St Edmunds-based sister station] Saxon Radio.

" He was a Norwich City fan, so the rivalry and humour was fierce!

" He did such a great job on air on Saxon - His big personality Shining Through .

" I'm so sad to hear of His Sudden Death which has robbed Suffolk of one of its nicest guys.

Mr Gough, who has been described by GenX as " hugely experienced and highly talented" is Survived By His Mother , brother, sister and son.
