He was born Jan. 28, 1958 in Albany, N.Y. to Edythe A. Sullivan McGoldrick and David M. McGoldrick, MD. He spent his childhood in Wellesley. He was the brother of five siblings, John M.

He received his bachelor of arts from Bowdoin College in 1981 and then moved to Cambridge. In 1984 he earned a master of business administration from Suffolk University and then, in 1989, he earned a masters degree in real estate development from Columbia University.

He and Debbie lived in New York City after they married. They moved to Toronto, Canada, where Rebecca and Charlotte were born, and then to New Jersey, where Sam was born. The family lived in Hong Kong and then London before returning back to the U.S. and making Martha’s Vineyard their permanent home.

Mark had an outstanding business career, starting at Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce (CIBC) in Canada.

In 2008, he founded the global private equity firm Mount Kellett Capital, where he served as managing partner.

In addition to serving as the chairman of board of the Global Fund for Children, he also supported several organizations offering programming around food security, youth services, education and more.

Mark loved skiing, football, tennis and traveling the world. He loved his dogs and was a professional dog conversationalist as well as a generous dispenser of horse treats. He loved reading and was a reader of all the books. Enthusiastically, he disseminated science innovation news and cute animal stories.

He was a brilliant, inspirational citizen of the world and a devoted and much loved family man. He is deeply missed.
