It was obvious he knew the end was near. He would never have stepped out of running Apple until he new for sure he wouldn't be around much longer. The moment he resigned as CEO I knew the doctors had told him it was only a matter of time and with pancreatic cancer once that point comes it moves very quickly. Not at all surprised it was measured in weeks.
That is very sad and yet perplexing. It was only a short time earlier in July he presented the new Apple campus to the Cupertino city council. I had assumed he'd be here for that. Quite sad.
It is sad to know he won't see that project through to completion.
