RIP Apple Steve Jobs
Steve Paul Jobs passed away on October 5, 2011. We are not certain of the time but believe it to be in the early afternoon, most likely either at his home.
He died this morning with his family around him others are saying he could have died at a hospital, or, he could have known that he was dying and passed away at home like my sister did. He probably died in Palo Alto at his home or at UCSF in San Francisco or Stanford Medical in Palo Alto. Just depends.
He is survived by his wife, Laurene, and four children.
Because of his poor health, Jobs has taken multiple leaves since 2004 from his position as CEO of Apple, and on Aug. 24 he relinquished the spot permanently. Jobs assumed the role of chairman of the board — a position that hadn’t existed at the time — and Apple appointed then-COO Tim Cook its new chief executive.
According to a statement just issued by Apple’s Board of Directors, company co-founder and longtime CEO Steve Jobs has passed away.
Steve Paul Jobs died from advanced pancreatic cancer that he had been publicly fighting since 2004.
Our thoughts and payers go out to the friends and family of Steve Jobs.
RIP Steve Jobs
