Apple Stores Closing- Apple will close its retail stores for several hours Wednesday so that employees can watch a webcast of a company-wide memorial service to celebrate the life of co-founder Steve Jobs, according to a person familiar with the matter.
The person was not authorized to speak publicly about the closings and spoke on condition of anonymity. The store closings were reported earlier by The Wall Street Journal and Reuters.
The memorial will be held at 10 a.m. at Apple's Cupertino headquarters and was announced last week in an email to employees from CEO Tim Cook. Apple says it is a private event.
A private memorial for Jobs was held Sunday at Stanford University's Memorial Church. Jobs, who died Oct. 5 at age 56 after a battle with pancreatic cancer, was buried in Palo Alto on Oct. 7. Apple isn't holding any public services for him.
