Steve Jobs' sister shares his final moments, last words

The New York Times has published Steve Jobs’s biological sister, novelist  Mona Simpson’s eulogy. She shared her eulogy for her passed away brother, offering an intimate look at the last moments before he died, including his surprising last words.

"Even as a feminist, my whole life I’d been waiting for a man to love, who could love me. For decades, I’d thought that man would be my father. When I was 25, I met that man and he was my brother," she wrote.

Jobs and Mona didn’t know each other until they were both adults. In 1985 a lawyer contacted Simpson to inform her about her brother, but he refused to call his name.

"When I met Steve, he was a guy my age in jeans, Arab- or Jewish-looking and handsomer than Omar Sharif," she wrote.

Jobs and Simpson had a long walk. Jobs said that he was in computer business and was working on something “insanely beautiful" at that moment. Jobs wasn't ashamed of working hard even if "the results were failures." After his resignation from Apple, he was disappointed, especially when he wasn't invited to a meeting of 500 Silicon Valley leaders with the then U.S. president.

Simpson also told about Steve’s first serious girlfriend. "[Jobs] was like a girl in the amount of time he spent talking about love. Love was his supreme virtue, his god of gods".

After having a surgery in 2009, he had to learn how to work again. "He tried. He always, always tried, and always with love at the core of that effort. He was an intensely emotional man," she said.

She also wrote his final words which he said looking at his sister Patty, his children and his wife: "OH WOW. OH WOW. OH WOW."
