El actual CEO de Apple Tim Cook publica en su cuenta de twitter oficial un tuit en memória del desaparecido co-fundador de Apple, Steve Jobs. Hoy se cumplen 4 años de la muerte del genio de Apple debido al cancer de pancreas. Sin duda este día será recordado todos los años por los usuarios de productos de la manzana, por todos aquellos que forman parte del mundo tecnológico y evidentemente fuera del mismo.
A pesar que muchos ya conocían la enfermedad de Jobs el golpe fue duro para todos y cada uno de los usuarios y empleados de Apple que esperaban ver a Jobs en el escenario presentando los nuevos modelos de iPhone (en aquella ocasión iphone 4s) de ese año.
Este es el tuit de Tim Cook en su cuenta oficial publicado hoy y en el que se puede leer: «Recordando a Steve por quién era y lo que él representaba. Lo honramos al continuar el trabajo que tanto amaba» Al tuit le acompaña la imagen de un Steve Jobs joven y sonriente.
Remembering Steve for who he was and what he stood for. We honor him by continuing the work he loved so much. pic.twitter.com/6UiXBjYe3l

Además Cook añade una carta para los empleados:
Team,
Today marks four years since Steve passed away. On that day, the world lost a visionary. We at Apple lost a leader, a mentor, and many of us lost a dear friend.
Steve was a brilliant person, and his priorities were very simple. He loved his family above all, he loved Apple, and he loved the people with whom he worked so closely and achieved so much.
Each year since his passing, I have reminded everyone in the Apple community that we share the privilege and responsibility of continuing the work Steve loved so much.
What is his legacy? I see it all around us: An incredible team that embodies his spirit of innovation and creativity. The greatest products on earth, beloved by customers and empowering hundreds of millions of people around the world. Soaring achievements in technology and architecture. Experiences of surprise and delight. A company that only he could have built. A company with an intense determination to change the world for the better.
And, of course, the joy he brought his loved ones.He told me several times in his final years that he hoped to live long enough to see some of the milestones in his children’s lives. I was in his office over the summer with Laurene and their youngest daughter. Messages and drawings from his kids to their father are still there on Steve’s whiteboard.
If you never knew Steve, you probably work with someone who did or who was here when he led Apple. Please stop one of us today and ask what he was really like. Several of us have posted our personal remembrances on AppleWeb, and I encourage you to read them.
Thank you for honoring Steve by continuing the work he started, and for remembering both who he was and what he stood for.
Tim
Después de una lucha con la enfermedad y debido al complicado estado de salud de Jobs, Tim Cook fue el encargado de relevar a Jobs en 2011 asignado por el propio Jobs. Apple sigue su camino a día de hoy con unas cifras de ventas espectaculares y siendo la empresa más valiosa del mundo con un capital que supera los 200 mil millones de dólares pero no por ello se van a olvidar de su carismático CEO, Steve Jobs.
