Not good to hear. Life is short, enjoy it while you can.

Is this confirmed? Name / obituary? I'm curious how old he was.

we had good times back on CS, he was pretty cool back in the day but never really reconnected after he had issues. I always wished him the best.

anyway, more info would be nice.

RIP Gates.

Knew him from long ago.. Didn't rub everyone the right way but I couldn't say anything bad about the guy. Chatted with him often. Jeez.. I hate to say it but a lot of people I know involved with AAS seem to be passing on as of late.. Strokes, heart attacks, etc ... Can't help but wonder. Very sad indeed. RIP

Thank you for posting his obit RR. Looked like a nice family.
It's really sad to lose someone great like that. But I expect many good friends on the other side have welcomed him.
God Bless You Gator

I knew gator since around 2004 at Iron Trybe and always got along with him well. I talked to him quite a bit up until his drinking got bad, then lost touch over many years. Just heard recently the past 1-2 years he had really made a change and was doing better. Sad he had to go out like this after getting straight and with a kid. He was a good guy when not battling the demons he had. My prayers go out to his family, kids, and all his friends. Rest in peace my fellow Iron Brother
