I spoke with the property managers Mike Kenny, and Brian Fannon. Kenny advised they received a call from Gilley's boss who grew concerned when he had called out sick and then did not show up for work on 10/22/15 when he was scheduled.

Fannon and Kenny backed out of the trailer, Fannon shut off the water at the pump outside of the home, while Kenny called the Melbourne Police Department to report the death.

Monroe advised she last saw Gilley in his wheelchair along the roadway on 10/23/15 at 1610. Monroe advised Gilley seemed in good spirits and in decent health, however their conversation was short and in passing. Monroe was the last person to see Gilley alive or speak with him.
