Such sad news and a difficult time for the family and friends, and for the NHS staff taking care of him.

He  might  not  get  the funeral he deserves now  but  I feel  there  will  be  a memorial  service at  sometime later

Good afternoon,

RIP Sir Tom, you were an amazing man.

I took our RBL branch standard out in the garden and dipped in remembrance of you for the two minutes silence.

Well done John, I am sure something will  be  done  for  him later when it  is  allowed  and  his family agree

A sad loss;  not only for his family but for the entire human race.
A one off. We, quite probably, shall never see the like of him again.

So sad, he will be the one shining light that will stand out for us all when this is all over, and we look back over the year we lost our freedom. I hope they release the single "You'll Never Walk Alone" that he sang with Michael Ball in his honour with the proceeds going to the NHS.
I feel a "A Doorstep Clap" on the day of his funeral would allow us all to show our appreciation and respect for his amazing fund raising for the NHS.
Walk on Tom - Respect!
