Better commentators than I will wax his eulogy with memorable text, video and song. Jobs was 56. I am 68, but I have said many times that I would work for him for nothing just for the privilege. To think that a person with his extraordinary gifts is gone and I am still here is an enigma. I must not be finished yet.
There was a time in the late 80's when I had the good fortune to work closely with Apple on the launch of several products. I never met Steve Jobs. I did not have too. His stamp of brilliance was branded beautifully on all the Apple products and its culture. A walk through the halls of Apple was to feel his brilliance from the paint to the excitement on the faces of the people. They knew then they were part of something special at Apple. I did too. And I loved it.
If you wish, listen to the radio segment and feel the energy that a Job's product created in me. And two years later, it has spread to the rest of the world! A person like him is never gone.
