In a tweet sent to his more than 1 million followers Friday night, Gov. Jerry Brown said, "This Sunday will be Steve Jobs Day in the State of California."
Jobs died Oct. 5 and was buried two days later during a small private funeral. Since his passing, the world -- including U.S. President Barack Obama, Microsoft's Bill Gates and Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg -- has mourned his passing and celebrated his achievements.
Several memorials also have cropped up to honor the man who co-founded Apple with Steve Wozniak. The New York Times reported Friday night that Oct. 16 also will be when Apple holds a memorial for Jobs at Stanford University for "prominent Silicon Valley executives." Jobs famously gave a commencement speech at Stanford in 2005.
Previously, Apple announced it would put on an employees-only memorial on Oct. 19 at company headquarters in Cupertino, Calif.
