Steve Jobs' Death Inspires Howard Stern to Help Pancreatic Cancer Research

Steve Jobs' death at the young age 56 from a rare form of pancreatic cancer has spurred Media King Howard Stern to help raise awareness and funds for research and treatment of this deadly disease.

The well known jewelry company --  RichRocks -- designed a "Tree of Life" necklace -- a universal symbol of encouragement, strength and protection in honor of the Apple founder. Twenty-five percent of all proceeds from the sale of the necklace goes to the City of Hope's pancreatic cancer research and treatment departments.

Stern -- who has become passionate about digital photography -- took photos of his wife wearing the "Tree of Life" necklace and passed them along to the founder of RichRocks and his wife's dear friend, Robin Rothfeld to help support the cause.
