John Franklin Gould, 58, passed away peacefully February 12, 2020, surrounded by family and friends at his home in West Newton, MA, following a courageous battle with cancer.

He was born January 23, 1962 in Philadelphia, PA.

John grew up in Wyndmoor, PA, where he attended Springfield High School. He received a B.S. from Emory University, an MBA from Georgetown University, and a Ph.D. in Finance from University of California, Los Angeles. He joined Cornerstone Research in 1991 and spent his entire career there, becoming a partner in 1998. He was an outstanding consultant, leader, mentor, colleague, and a treasured friend to many. He had a charming sense of humor and was the most loving and devoted husband and father.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Robert Gould and Zelda Feldman-Gould.

John is survived by his wife, Janice Shiroma-Gould; his daughters, Allie Gould and Katie Gould; his sister, Cathie Gould; his brother Dan Gould (Anne); his in-laws, Betty Shiroma and Lionel Shiroma; and his sisters-in-law, Carol Nakagawa (Rex) and Wendy Shiroma.

The family is planning a Celebration of Life to honor John in late spring.

John's family is grateful for the excellent and compassionate care he received from Dr. Matthew Smith, Kara Olivier, Xenia, Jerome, and the entire Genitourinary Cancer Center team at MGH.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Massachusetts General Hospital, 125 Nashua Street, Boston, MA 02114.
