Captain Sir Tom Moore has been hailed as a "shining light" for the entire nation during the pandemic, as tributes poured in from across the world following his death at the age of 100.
The Second World War veteran, who became a national treasure for his extraordinary fundraising efforts, was admitted to hospital on Sunday with breathing difficulties.
Captain Sir Tom's daughter, Hannah Ingram-Moore, said her father had pneumonia for the last few weeks "and last week tested positive for Covid-19".
He died surrounded by his close family, with one more present on FaceTime.
