"Steve Jobs was an extraordinary visionary, our very dear friend and the guiding light of the Pixar family. He saw the potential of what Pixar could be before the rest of us, and beyond what anyone ever imagined. Steve took a chance on us and believed in our crazy dream of making computer animated films; the one thing he always said was to simply 'make it great.' He is why Pixar turned out the way we did and his strength, integrity and love of life has made us all better people. He will forever be a part of Pixar’s DNA. Our hearts go out to his wife Laurene and their children during this incredibly difficult time." - John Lasseter, Chief Creative Officer & Ed Catmull, President, Walt Disney and Pixar Animation Studios...................Thank you Steve, for everything you have done with Apple, Disney and Pixar, you will not be forgotten!
