Bill Clinton hails Jobs' cancer fight 'courage'
NEW YORK: Former US president Bill Clinton said Thursday he was "deeply saddened" by the death of Apple co-founder Steve Jobs, hailing the tech titan's "passion for his work" and his courage in battling cancer.
Jobs died Wednesday at age 56 after a long battle with pancreatic cancer. World leaders, tech moguls and ordinary people have paid tribute to the man who helped revolutionize modern life with gadgets like the iPod and iPhone.
"I am deeply saddened by the passing of Steve Jobs. His passion for his work and his courage in fighting his cancer were an inspiration to us all," Clinton said in a statement.
"Hillary and I will always be especially grateful for his personal kindness to us when Chelsea was at Stanford. Our thoughts and prayers are with Laurene and their children."
