Written by

After being admitted to hospital on Tuesday night with a massive cerebral hemorrhage, Apple director, Jerome York, passed away on Thursday.

“Jerry joined Apple’s Board in 1997 when most doubted the company’s future. He has been a pillar of financial and business expertise and insight on our Board for over a dozen years,” said Steve Jobs, Apple’s CEO. “It’s been a privilege to know and work with Jerry, and I’m going to miss him a lot.”

York has been a member of Apple’s board since 1997.

    I think it was very classy of Apple to give their web site home page over to an announcement about Mr. York's death today.
