★ “A celebration of Steve’s life.”

Apple:

Watch the special event, filmed live at the Apple campus in Cupertino, California.

I was going to link to this without adding a comment until I saw Jony speak. He is the man who invented much of the hardware we touch many times a day and he’s the man who is partly responsible for the Apple we see today but he’s also the man who will say time and time again that he is a product of Steve’s Genius and not the sole inventor. I’ve met him a few times and each time, a friend asked for a photo or his autograph and he always declined. “The products are a result of everyone at Apple. I’m just a man.” Jony lives  a private life, was best friends with Steve and rarely speaks. It was surprising to see him on stage after years of rarely making any appearance outside of Apple product intros.

For the first time since Steve’s death, I did shed a few tears because you felt that immense love in Jony’s voice as he told stories of the man most of us never met in real life.If you only watch one part of this 1:20 video, fast forward to Jony’s part. It’ll move you.
