“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 heart broken by the news,” mentioned James Hazell, proprietor and managing director of GenX Radio Suffolk.
The present, Tim Gough at Breakfast, featured music and widespread video games.
Gough’s supporters took to Twitter to supply condolences to the station and his household. An unverified account of the incident alleges the music instantly stopped almost an hour into his phase.
“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,” Hazell mentioned in assertion.
