How Apple Paid Tribute to Steve Jobs

摘要

Apple held a private service on October 19 at its Cupertino, California, headquarters to honor cofounder and former CEO Steve Jobs, who passed away on October 5 after a lengthy battle with pancreatic cancer. The service featured tributes from Apple executives and musical performances by Norah Jones and Coldplay. Apple stores around the world shut down temporarily so that employees there could watch the event. "Steve made our world a better place and left his fingerprints all over society, all over the world," Apple CEO Tim Cook told the employees attending the memorial. "He also leaves behind a company that only he could have built and a spirit that will be the foundation of this company forever."
