I have nothing to add or take from all that. While you were with us, on this side, I heard you were at times difficult to work with, and for. I never knew that about you. I didn&#8217;t pay much attention really. I&#8217;m a Windows user. Sorry. Nothing against you or your products; it was the people who fawned on Apple that often rubbed me the wrong way.

Your biographer said you regretted not having surgery when you were first diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. A slow growing type he said, you were one of the lucky ones according to your doc. I don&#8217;t know, hard for me to think that getting any cancer makes you lucky, but it&#8217;s all relative I suppose. I don&#8217;t know what&#8217;s on the Other Side, or even if there is an Other Side.
