Aimee Herd : Oct 5, 2011  Ned Potter, Colleen Curry - ABC News, AP, Apple, Inc.,

"Steve's brilliance, passion and energy were the source of countless innovations that enrich and improve all of our lives. The world is immeasurably better because of Steve. His greatest love was for his wife, Laurene, and his family. Our hearts go out to them and to all who were touched by his extraordinary gifts." ?Apple, Inc.

FOUNDER'S NOTE on the passing of Steve Jobs: In February of 2011, I recounted an experience I had several years ago. Suddenly God put Steve Jobs on my heart. You can read about it by CLICKING HERE. Though I never met Steve Jobs, I felt God's love for this man; I mean I felt it?literally with trembling, intensely shaking and tears. I had never experienced this before with a public figure. God used this man to help create some of the greatest technologies known so far. I daily use my iPod, or my iPad, or my Mac computer because of the ideas God put into Steve. His ideas could only have come through the "Father of lights." Many of you can experience what we post daily on BCN, because of God's gifting within Steve Jobs. Though my prayers for his healing some 3-4 years ago didn't end the way I had hoped, I still cannot forget the experience of God's healing love for this creative genius. I was brought to attention in a moment because God wanted my prayers (and I'm sure the prayers of countless others). My heart and prayers now go out to his family, friends, and co-workers for this great loss. ?Steve Shultz (also born in 1955, the year of Steve Job's birth)

Apple Inc. reported tonight that co-founder Steve Jobs has died. He stepped down in August, after having beat pancreatic cancer and having undergone a liver transplant in earlier years. He noted when he resigned, "I have always said if there ever came a day when I could no longer meet my duties and expectations as Apple's CEO, I would be the first to let you know."

After attending Reed College in Oregon, he dropped out after a semester to form Apple Computers along with his childhood friend Steve Wozniak, in his parents' garage. By the tender age of 25 he had become a multimillionaire, as he and Steve marketed the world's first personal computer: the Apple II.

Jobs has been compared by some industry watchers to Thomas Edison, for his innovative ideas that literally changed the way the world communicates, listens to recorded music and uses computers.

An ABC News report states that he avoided the media in his private life, and only granted interviews regarding his products when it would benefit the company.

It's interesting to note that Steve Jobs' biological mother?unmarried at the time?gave him up for adoption. He was adopted by Clara and Paul Jobs of Los Altos, Calif., "a working-class couple who nurtured his early interest in electronics," according to an AP report.

Text on Apple's website Wednesday night read:
"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."

Apple has extended an email address for those who which to leave condolences for Jobs' family: rememberingsteve@apple.com
