I don't understand exactly what you want to know.

It may have died because your tap water probably has high chlorine and chloromines. Since you didn't add any dechlorinater, all the "bad stuff" from your tap got into the water.

You might want to do another water change and add the dechlorinator so your other fish don't pass as well.

If you didn't have any dechlorinator you should have never even changed the water until you got some. Thats putting the lives of the rest of your fish in danger. This is assuming of course that you're getting water from your tap. Other than that, there's really not much else we can tell you with the information given. If you still have questions please be more specific.

Dunno what else to say other than sorry for your loss, =/
