Dave Goldberg, SurveyMonkey’s CEO and husband of Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg, died Friday night. He was 47 years old.

Goldberg, a well known Silicon Valley entrepreneur, passed away suddenly and unexpectedly, his brother Robert said in a Facebook post.

“In this time of sorrow, we mourn his passing and remember what an amazing husband, father, brother, son and friend he was,” Robert Goldberg wrote.

In a statement released Saturday, SurveyMonkey said Goldberg’s “genius, courage and leadership were overshadowed only by his compassion, friendship and heart.”
