A Tribute to Steve Jobs

        On Wednesday, October 6th, 2011, at age 56 Steve Jobs passed away seven years after he had received surgery for a rare form of pancreatic cancer. For those seven years, he had continually been fighting the cancer, and on August 28th had decided to leave Apple behind to Tim Cook. He had died peacefully at the comfort of his home, with his loving family. For generations to generations Steve Jobs brilliant ideas and approaches will continue to inspire and motivate great people. Instantly, after his death the world reacted heavily to his passing away. His death is still continuing to generate countless leaders and innovators, such as Barack Obama, Steve Wozniak, Bill Gates, Larry Page and many other inspiring leaders to pay their tributes, to the great Co-Founder of Apple, and until recently the CEO of apple. On the Apple website users will find, the following statement posted in his honor “Apple has lost a visionary and creative genius, and the world has lost an amazing human being. Those of us who have been fortunate enough to know and work with Steve have lost a dear friend and an inspiring mentor. Steve leaves behind a company that only he could have built, and his spirit will forever be the foundation of Apple.”
