Steve Jobs' death caused by respiratory arrest, cancer
SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) - October 10, 2011
Jobs died last Wednesday at age 56. Apple Inc. didn't disclose
the cause of death, but Jobs had battled pancreatic cancer and had
a liver transplant in 2009.
He resigned as Apple's CEO in August while out on his third
medical leave in several years.
The death certificate, released Monday by the Santa Clara County
Public Health Department, says Jobs died at his home in Palo Alto.
No autopsy was performed.
Jobs died the day after Apple announced its latest iPhone, the
iPhone 4S, which will go on sale Friday.
