We'll Miss You, Steve

I wrote a longer piece, related to his career, when he resigned as the CEO of Apple earlier this year, but I wanted to say something more personal about what Steve Jobs meant to me. I've always had Apple products in my life. My family's first computer was an Apple Macintosh. My first computer was an Apple iMac. I've had a couple iPod, and I currently have a Mac Book. Apple products have been around me for as long as I know.

More recently, Steve Jobs has been an inspiration. I looked up to him. It wasn't just that he brought such great products to the market; it was that he saw the need. He made millions of lives better. He always looked forward. He was the pace setter for the technology sector, and as a CEO. he was the envy of every other company.

There are many people who can run a company. It takes something else to direct and lead a company. Steve Jobs was an innovator, a leader, a visionary. He will be sorely missed and remember by many. It is easy to see why.

Rest in Peace, Steve. The World will miss you.
