Not many details as yet:
The aide said the body of the 68-year-old Republican was found by staff members who went to his apartment after he failed to show up for work. There was no immediate word on the cause of his death. Gillmor's office did not respond to a reporter's call.
Gillmor, who represented Ohio's 5th District in the Bowling Green area of the state, was first elected to Congress in 1988
Gillmor was a fairly staunch conservative on most issues. Amazingly, his Wikipedia page already has news of his death posted.
Gillmor served in the Judge Advocates corp in the Air Force and was a lawyer after he resigned his commission. He served on several top committees in the House.

1. Its always sad to me when I hear someone has died alone with no one with them when they pass. It is even more so when its someone who has served his country. May God bless this man and his loved ones, and may Gods angles surround him and see him safely home.
