Frank "Gill" Aulick, 74, a lifelong horseman and devoted enthusiast of boats and classic automobiles, passed away peacefully on Tuesday, June 3, 2025, in Pensacola, FL, near his home in Perdido Beach, AL - a place that held deep meaning for him and his family.

Gill spent the majority of his life in Bourbon County, KY, where he proudly managed Cedar Point Farm, a thoroughbred boarding and breaking operation founded in 1950 by his parents. His connection to the horse industry ran deep: his father was born at Hamburg Place, where Gill's grandfather served as broodmare manager. His father later oversaw operations at Elk Hill Farm and Spendthrift Farm - where Gill was born - further extending the family's legacy in the world of thoroughbreds.

Beyond his lifelong commitment to horses, Gill found great joy on the water and behind the wheel. Whether captaining a boat or restoring a car, he cherished the sense of freedom and craftsmanship that came with engines and motion. His mechanical skill was rivaled only by his quiet generosity and kind-hearted spirit.

He is survived by his beloved daughter, Elizabeth Miles Aulick Robertson (Eric); and his treasured grandsons, Rusher Davis Robertson and Miles Ryan Robertson; he is also survived by his sister, Amy Aulick Brannock.

He is preceded in death by his parents, Shirley Gill Aulick and Frank Aulick, Jr.

Gill was a longtime member of St. Peter's Episcopal Church in Paris, Kentucky, where faith and fellowship were meaningful parts of his life.

A private celebration of life will be held later this summer in Alabama.
