Apple has just confirmed the death of Apple co-founder and former CEO, Steve Jobs. He has long struggled with pancreatic cancer and had recently stepped down from his post due to his deteriorating health. He was 56 years old.

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.
