This is one of the sites that seemed very thorough about antifreeze poisoning.

Anti Freeze will crystilize the kidneys, that what ultimately kills them, they have kidney failure, and once you hit a certain point of kidney damage, death is sure to follow.
Dogs are attracted to antifreeze because it has a sugary taste to it.
If your dog ingested anit Freeze, he'll walk around like he is drunk, his eyes will be going crazy, vommitting might happen (but not always), his abdomen will be extreemly painful when palpated (touched), the Mucus Membranes will be pale (gums) and ultimately he'll pass.
The best way to know for sure if thats what killed him is to have the vet do some blood tests, or do a necropsy (animal autopsy) - thats the only 100% way to know.
I'm so sorry for your loss.

Yes, Dead would be a symptom of Anti-Freeze poisoning.

Dead? Well if he is dead that is a pretty good sign he ate some antifreeze!

give him 1 tbsp of hydrogen peroxide every 10 mins until he vomits...that only if he has eaten or is highly suspected to have drinking it
