The global tech community has suffered a significant loss. David Goldberg, the highly respected CEO of SurveyMonkey and cherished husband to Facebook’s COO, Sheryl Sandberg, has tragically passed away. This sad news was shared on May 2nd by Mr. Goldberg’s brother, Robert Goldberg, causing shockwaves through the tech world and beyond.

In his statement, Robert Goldberg expressed his shock and sadness, remarking on the vital roles David played as a brother, husband to Sheryl Sandberg, father to two wonderful children, and a son of Paula Goldberg. He prompted everyone to remember David as the awe-inspiring figure he was. The family, asking for privacy during this grievous time, encouraged friends and well-wishers to share their memories and photographs of David on his Facebook page, celebrating his life rather than focusing on their loss.
