How lovely that our TM friends around the world have not only heard of the great man but share our respect for everything he did.

RIP Sir Captain Tom.
A truly inspirational person for us all to emulate in some small way.

The embodiment of a truly great hero — selfless effort for ones fellow man and a great role model for all those struggling in the world with the current lockdowns etc
I trust he was welcomed home in heaven with a fanfare

I am going to disent a bit from the general sentiment. I know little to nothing about the man except that he was old and lapped his garden to raise support for the NHS. No doubt a nice old chap from Gods Own County but to my mind the eulogies ought to be about the great british public whose imagination was stirred and who gave so impressively generously. The Captain was the trigger - its the British response we should applaud. And its something that you see time and again when other countries have catastrophes.
"The UK has helped to raise $1 billion for the coronavirus COVAX Advance Market Commitment (AMC) through match-funding other donors, which combined with the £548 million of UK aid pledged will help distribute one billion doses of coronavirus vaccines to 92 developing countries this year." Twice as much as the EU! We are a generous people.

When a 100 year old gentleman decides he’s going to have a go and physically do what he can to help in a crisis, I think that’s a bit more special than just handing over the dosh?

Well Howard you have yet again proved to be our very own TM Boris and demonstrated how you somehow like him are devoid of the humanity gene - good luck to your wife. Tom was and will always remain a hero as he served his nation proudly and once more served a need for his country with honour when he saw the need, he was a gentleman that almost all of us loved and respected and Covid has immortalised him as a result of his herculean efforts for the NHS. Most of us felt humbled and inspired by his efforts. RIP Tom.
