The credit card company said the 55-year-old executive was coming back from a business trip. The plane made an emergency landing in the U.S., an American Express spokeswoman said, but she declined to say where Gilligan had been.

Looks a bit limp-wristed too. Perhaps that contributed.

Always weirded out when someone croaks who's so much younger than me; rich, too.
Genetics win in the end, with a push either way from lifestyle. When your number is up, your number's up.

He does look older than his age, but he started at Amex 35 years ago as an intern, so his age is probably correct.
Another article said the flight was from Tokyo to New York, so if he was in the air a long time a blood clot could have got him.

there’s no way that psycho was only 55, too

What I find funny is Amex charges extra for credit charges made in foreign countries.
I thought they were supposed to be the “travel experts?”

Maybe he had a sushi dinner before his flight.
