FLASHBACK 2015
Dave Goldberg, the successful Silicon Valley entrepreneur and husband of Facebook COO and Lean In author Sheryl Sandberg, died of heart-related causes, PEOPLE has learned.
Speculation over the exact cause of the Silicon Valley CEO’s death was rife following his death aged 47 in a hotel gym in Punta Mita, Mexico on May 1.
The SurveyMonkey CEO, who had been on vacation with his wife and family, was discovered by his brother Robert, 43, lying near a treadmill in a hotel gym and bleeding from the back of his head, according to Edgar Veytia, the attorney general for the Mexican state of Nayarit.
An initial Mexican police report said Goldberg died due to severe head trauma and significant blood loss.
However, a Silicon Valley source on Wednesday confirmed the father-of-two had died from heart complications.
On Monday, a devastated Sandberg, who spoke eloquently of carrying out Goldberg’s wishes of how to raise their son and daughter at his memorial, again took to Facebook, to respond to condolences from supporters
