PALO ALTO, Calif. — The funeral for Steve Jobs, Apple Inc.’s co-founder, is taking place Friday, according to a person familiar with the matter.
The funeral is characterized as a small private gathering, this person said.
The event comes two days after Jobs passed away after battling an undisclosed illness. He previously underwent surgery for pancreatic cancer and had a liver transplant.
There is no public memorial planned for Jobs’ death, said an Apple spokesman.
In a letter to Apple’s employees on Wednesday, Apple Chief Executive Tim Cook said that the company is “planning a celebration of Steve’s extraordinary life” for staff that will take place soon.
