How sad. He had a wonderful last few months. I hope his family are left to grieve in peace.

A wonderful man with a lovely family who inspired so many people to generously donate to his appeal.

The final amount raised vastly exceeded his original figure and that will be his lasting legacy.

For those of us Gransnetters in our sixties, seventies, eighties and nineties, wondering whether we can still do anything to change the world for the better, Sir Tom has shown us that we can. What an inspirational man!

I feel so sad that he was not well enough for the vaccine and died with Covid. I hope his family take comfort from knowing how many hearts he touched.
