Dave Goldberg Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on May 2, 2015.
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Family members say tech executive David Goldberg, head of the online SurveyMonkey site and husband of Facebook executive Sheryl Sandberg, has died.

Goldberg died suddenly Friday night, brother Robert Goldberg wrote on his Facebook page.

"Dave Goldberg was an amazing person and I am glad I got to know him," Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg wrote on his own page. "My thoughts and prayers are with Sheryl and her family."

Sandberg is the author of "Lean In: Women, Work and the Will to Lead."

The San Francisco Chronicle (http://bit.ly/1I5YQL7reports) that Goldberg, 47, was a former Yahoo executive and was credited by Sandberg for helping her juggle her roles as an executive and mother.

Dear Sheryl and Family,

You and your husband Dave have been role models for me for many years. Please accept my condolences for your loss.

"Man has three friends on whose company he relies. First, wealth which goes with him only while good fortune lasts. Second, his relatives; they go only as far as the grave, leave him there. The third friend, his good deeds, go with him beyond the grave."

-- The Talmud
