A sister's eulogy to Steve Jobs

If you haven't seen it yet, set aside a few minutes this evening to read her eulogy to Steve Jobs, delivered at his memorial service and published Sunday by the New York Times.

And if you cared at all about the man who co-founded Apple (AAPL), bring a handkerchief.
