Matthew Goldstein was an eighth-grade math teacher at Brookline’s Edith C. Baker School, superintendent Linus Guillory said on Monday. In addition, his wife Lyla Goldstein graduated from Brookline High School in 1988.
Matthew and Lyla Goldstein were both found dead in their home on Province Lake Road in Wakefield on Christmas. Their daughters, 22-year-old Valerie and 19-year-old Violet, also died.
Investigators were focusing on the home’s gas heating system in the days after the deaths.

“Mr. Goldstein was an exceptional educator who brought passion, kindness, and excellence to his classroom. His dedication to inspiring students and shaping young minds has left an indelible mark on all who had the privilege of knowing him,” Guillory said.
Guillory described Lyla Goldstein as “a beloved and respected member of her high school class” who is “remembered as a smart, kind and admired classmate.”
“Our hearts go out to their extended family, friends, colleagues, and all who knew and loved them. During this immensely difficult time, we will come together as a community to honor their memory and support one another,” Guillory said.
A community gathering was held at the Baker School Monday afternoon with clinicians from the Riverside Trauma Center available to meet with families. A virtual session is also being held Monday night.
“As we grieve this heartbreaking loss, let us also remember the love and joy that the Goldstein family brought to those around them. We encourage everyone in our community to reach out for support as needed and to keep the Goldstein family in your thoughts,” Guillory said.

TRAENE Fitness Pickleball Brings Pickleball Courts And Wellness Options To Dover
Dover, New Hampshire is finally going to see something go into the old Ames Building, (same plaza as Hannaford) at 833 Central Avenue. It’s not just “something,” it’s a Community space we didn’t know we wanted.
Justin Grondahl is the owner of TRAENE Fitness & Pickleball and he’s opening one here in Dover. He has 63,000 square feet to make beautiful. Justin is the son of the co-founder of Planet Fitness that started right here in Dover, New Hampshire.
Justin spent some time with me here in the Townsquare Studios and told me everything we can expect.
You will not believe what he has in store for this place. It makes me want to move to Dover. (although it’s like my 2nd home – I’m here all. the. time.) Check out what his plans are:
- 10 indoor pickleball courts
- 3,000 Square Foot Classroom for Megaformer Pilates Classes
- 20,000 square feet of just gym equipment
- 2 Cold Plunges
- 3 Saunas, with three floors. Lots of people can fit into them
- Big Locker Rooms
- Red Light Beds
- Massage Chairs
- Massage Beds
- Tanning Booths
TRAENE Recently Added a Peptide Clinic to their Plans
If you are unfamiliar with peptides, they are chains of amino acids that help you heal injuries, build muscles and in some cases, lose weight.
After Justin told me all this, I asked if they will have food and drinks too because it was the only thing I could think of that they didn’t mention! He said, “yes, we’ll have something.”
What’s Up With the Penguin?
When Justin came into the studio, he had a TRAENE branded shirt that included a penguin. When I asked him why a Penguin, he said that it has always been his favorite animal because they are very tied to their Community. They never really leave and they are always together.

Justin is already under construction of TRAENE. He said they should be open in the Fall of 2026.
Another incredible perk of being part of the TRAENE community is they are going to pick between 10 – 15 Members of the Month who are going to get rewards like:
- Renting out a race track
- Limo service to Bruins or Celtics games, whichever the member chooses
These trips will be all paid for, all free, Justin said.
New Fitness & Pickeball Center Opening Up in the Fall of 2026 in Dover, NH
As soon as I hear about when TRAENE is opening, I’ll let you know and you and I can get our pickleball team together. Justin did say sometime in the fall, but no specific date.. yet.
