Gilman was among numerous firefighters who responded to the blaze at a vacant summer home in the Ocean County community. It wasn't clear if he was helping to fight the fire when he was stricken.
The blaze was reported shortly after 6 p.m. Saturday and was brought under control later in the evening.
No residents were hurt in the blaze. But a firefighter from neighboring Bay Head was treated at a hospital for an undisclosed injury and was released later Saturday.
The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
