That's easy. Her songs (one in particular) were playing at memorable times of my life. They probably added to the memorable-ness of it. It makes me sad that a person who contributed to my life, even in a very peripheral way, even though she didn't know that she did it, is gone.
The fact that you even referenced Steve Jobs apparently means he played some similar part in your life.
If you don't understand that I don't know what else I can tell you.
