It's an understandable question. Many media outlets are treading carefully, identifying him by his accomplishments (successful entrepreneur and investor) and position (CEO of SurveyMonkey), when in fact the main reason people have heard of Dave Goldberg is that his wife is Facebook COO and Lean In author Sheryl Sandberg. And, while it's true that you could figure out his identity using a search engine (as one commenter suggested), few sources would be so blunt in their explanation of the story's apparent importance, so I think asking the question here isn't out of line. (CNN.com, to its credit, ran the story under the headline "Facebook exec's husband dies".)
