Surprising he passed so soon. We knew he was sick since he resigned as CEO last month, but he stayed on as Chairman and a board member. I half expected to see him do the iPhone presentation yesterday, but of course he didn't. RIP Steve Jobs. A job well done indeed.

RIP Steve

I lost my grandfather to pancreatic cancer - four months from diagnosis to when he was gone. It's a terrible, terrible version of an already terrible disease. You have to be glad for Steve that he had as much time with his family as he did.

Steve Jobs was a genius.

But what I remember most, is from the movie, "Pirates of Silicon Valley", and how Jobs left his Pregnant girlfriend (high school sweetheart0, and denied being the Father of the baby girl, Lisa. Steve Jobs had made big money, and gave no financial support for his daughter. The Baby Mama and baby girl Lisa, were on Medicaid and Welfare for a time. While Jobs was basking in his millions.

The first Apple computer was the LISA computer.

Steve Jobs was adopted. And for him to deny his girlfriend and daughter for years, will always be at the top of the list of things I remember about STEVE JOBS.

He made expensive tech toys and wore a black turtle neck and blue jeans. And made billions in the tech world. But denied his own 1st born, baby girl.
