STEVE JOBS FUNERAL IS FRIDAY

The family of Steve Jobs scheduled his funeral for today, Oct. 7, according to a report. He was know for being a quiet man who kept himself to himself - but became the iconic face of modern technology.

So it’s only fitting that the funeral for Apple co-founder Steve Jobs, who died this week aged 56, took place as a small private gathering.

The location was not disclosed out of respect for Jobs's family, the Wall Street Journal reports. The funeral is characterized as a small private gathering, this person said. The person wouldn't say where or when the event was taking place, citing respect for Mr. Jobs and his family's privacy.
