Family members planned to return Gay's body to Salt Lake City, where he was born, for private services and a burial, said a person familiar with the arrangements who requested anonymity because the family did not authorize the release of any information. Gay ran Hughes' holding company, Summa Corp.

Gay also served as chairman of Hughes Air Corp. Gay's wife and a daughter declined to release any information. The medical institute confirmed Gay's death in a brief announcement on its Web site. He was a trustee from to A Las Vegas jury in rejected the will as fake, but Melvin Dummar continues to press his case in other courts. The death "doesn't affect our lawsuit," said Stuart Stein, attorney for Dummar, the frozen-meat deliveryman who has long claimed he was to have been richly rewarded for finding Hughes sprawled face-down and bleeding on a desert road in Dummar's new lawyers and a retired FBI agent claim Hughes' aides lied when they testified at the Nevada trial that their boss was holed up at a Las Vegas hotel and couldn't have been in the desert.

Gay is included in the lawsuit because he was a senior executive for Hughes' enterprises. Stein said he will substitute the estate of Gay in the lawsuit. Next week, a federal judge in Salt Lake City will hold a hearing to decide if Dummar's legal team can start taking sworn statements from other Hughes aides and witnesses, including some who say they can place Hughes in the desert. Stein said many of the witnesses are near death of old age.

Tomsic said Dummar can't specify any wrongdoing by Gay, who testified years ago he wasn't in a position to know whether Hughes occasionally left his Desert Inn penthouse but said it was possible.

Dummar is suing Gay and Hughes' cousin William Lummis, a major beneficiary of the Hughes estate, who settled the estate with 21 distant cousins after years of litigation. Before he died, Hughes already had funded the medical institute, leaving it his stock from Hughes Aircraft Co.

Gay derived his wealth from running Hughes' many business ventures, not from the Hughes estate, lawyers said. Lummis is retired and living in Texas and "can't believe this is happening," said his Salt Lake City lawyer, Randy Dryer. Dummar's case has a compelling new witness -- the billionaire's pilot, who says he lost track of Hughes at a rural Nevada brothel near where Dummar says he stumbled across Hughes and drove him to Las Vegas.

He said he often flew Hughes into the desert for a trysts with a diamond-toothed prostitute. Gay leaves a wife, two sons and a daughter. Frank W.
