Steve Jobs – Died at 56
Steve Jobs was the CEO and founder of Apple. This photo of a frail-looking Jobs was taken months before he succumbed to his illness. He was surrounded by his wife, children, and sisters and his last words were “Oh wow. Oh wow. Oh wow.”. His philosophy was, “Being the richest man in the cemetery doesn’t matter to me. Going to bed at night saying we’ve done something wonderful, that’s what matters to me.” Indeed he had lived and left a legacy before his death. He died due to pancreatic cancer.
