Trying to deal with the death of a loved one right now. And that loved one is the guy who many of you know as @goaskalice I am his fiance, and he passed away this past weekend. I just really don't have the appropriate contact information to let the developers of this site to know. So I am hoping they can reach out to me via mssg on here, email (I think I have two registered on the site.
My apologies and condolences to those who knew him from the site, and have worked with him over the past many years. We, his family are all in a state of shock still as well.
Much love to everyone..
Edit:
Firstly, thank you so much for all of your thoughts, prayers and condolences. I am overwhelmed by the number of responses.
To answer what i can of repeated questions i saw as i looked over all the comments.
He was 52 years old, did have some health problems that flared up now and again, but as far as it has been determined at this point, he passed away peacefully in his sleep (he suffered from mild sleep apnea)
Myself, his children, grandchildren and the rest of his family and friends cannot thank everyone enough for the outpouring of care and concern and prayers and donations etc. They are all so greatly appreciated as we are still in mourning/grieving for him.
Once again, so much love to you all.

I'm in shock right now..... Gil was the heart and soul of myLot for a good decade. I never had the pleasure of meeting Gil in person, but I respected him and trusted him like a true friend. @fruitcakeliz I am so sorry for your loss.

Gil was a friend to many people here, even though he was known to most as 'Alex' and to a some others as @Xfahctor (though they might not have known about his other role). His patience and forbearance (and sense of humour) as an Admin was, I know, appreciated and respected by many. I'm sure that many, like me, will want to send our love and condolences to all of you, his family.

He did talk about his illness and perhaps he succumbed to it. Will miss him.

I am so very sorry for your family's loss.
I have not been a member of the site for the many years that some others have been, but I respected and counted on him fixing things in the background, which he always did. He helped see to it that things ran as smoothly as possible. I will keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers.
