Captain Sir Tom's daughter Hannah - whom he lived with in his final years - recalls her 'magical' childhood - and how, much later, with a young family of her own, she urged her father to move in with them.

Captain Sir Tom's daughter Hannah Ingram-Moore - whom he lived with in his final years - recalls her"magical" childhood - and how, much later, with a young family of her own,"we urged you to move in with us".She adds her father's relationship with her two children was"a constant reminder of how lucky we were to have you as a father" - as he bonded with his grandchildren.

Hannah says he became"the solid foundation" of the family, chopping wood, mowing the lawn, looking after the dogs, the bins, the greeenhouse and cooking lunch every Sunday."In the latter years, we got used to the soft shuffle and scrap of your frame," she recalls."Who would have thought our little family gesture would become what it did?"We are so proud of the way you handled everything that happened...

"We have lost a huge part of our family - our five now stands as four. We feel your loss with a deafening silence." "The loss of you is a dull physical ache, but the power of the love you left us with allows us to stay strong. "Thank you for all the special times we shared, our relationship cannot be broken by death - you will be with me always."

Can’t believe how many vacuous people out there, leave Sir Tom alone and let him rest in peace.

Will this story go away now.... we don't want a statue or a tom day.... let's just get on with solving this pandemic

Nice send off... shame all vets aren’t treated like this.

Why can’t I attend the funeral of people I know but I am getting a live stream of someone else’s

Sir Tom, you are loved and remembered from Australia

Why the hell is this being streamed on bbc?

I love the concrete pipes wedding story - on my wedding day, to help keep emotions under control on the way to chapel, my dad and I discussed pig breeding 😊

Bravo. He reached and touched the world.

What part of this funeral was actually private? As the daughter said it would be! 🙄🙄

Sir Tom’s funeral today, the bile on social media has been appalling. He is despised by the globalist and the libtards as he symbolizes the British spirit & values of the majority, everything they despise.

💙

It's not easy standing up there

He just walked around his garden.

i'm sad that he left us. captain sir tom's spirit forever♥

I owe you an apology to ever doubt your sincerity and professionalism. It’s was just like a dream to me when I received my first payment. After my second payment it became a reality now after several payments it has become a way of life. SamuelEddy_

A men who achieved so much trolled on social by idiots who’ve achieved nothing and contribute even less. RIP Captain Tom

Poor Cpt Moore. He'd still be with us had it not been the disregard for human lives of his fellow country men. Same sorry fate for 122,415 (and counting) Brits who died alone in the hospitals. Will Brits break their forebears' record of 449,700 deaths in WWII?

I thought his request was for a quiet private funeral? Sad that his daughter and the BBC want to make it very public.

Beautiful tributes paid to a Lovely man from a Loving family.

Sadly it became very apparent today that there is not much love lost between the two sisters , sad to see,

Rest in peace captain sir Tom

When I see the title, 'Captain Sir Tom's grandson,' I don't know why but I was expecting to see an elderly gentleman. Cetainly makes a pleasant change from the '27year old grandmother' stories

Harry and Megan are giving a speech later about Captain Tom, as he struck a cord with them, and Harry said how much he reminds him of himself, selfless and self serving

Women are Supermen

Seeing lots of pig ignorant messages ......... god bless Captain Tom xx

Such a moving tribute to your wonderful grandad. Rest In Peace Captain Sir Tom ❤️

Grandparents can be such a force for young people. Lovely to hear his words about his

Well done BBC wonderful, heart breaking coverage of the funeral service for Captain Sir Tom's . Especially liked that is was only close family doing to oration and not being interrupted by blabbering commentators

The most moving and beautiful service. What a lovely man and the loveliest family. His legacy lives on 💕

I thought this was meant to be a private funeral. His daughter seems to like media publicity.

Wow this has made me weep ♥️

Why BBC add sir before his name , Britain' doesn't believe in equality Poor and workers'are facing problem due to capitilism and Britain is always promote to the capitilism but socialist economy is good than capitilism

The NHS should take every single penny donated to them on behalf of Sir Captain Tom & erect small monuments outside ever major hospital to remember all the NHS staff & Care Workers who've died due to Johnson's fucking criminally negligent handling of this crisis. CaptainTomMoore

Why was Trump banned?

👏👏👏👏👊👌

my heart goes out to all his family A beautiful service with lovely words spoken by all Bless you all Captain Toms Family xx

Am not saying NodjizB is the best but atleast he is better than other fake Tipsters giving normal Guesswork That's why I recommend him as the best we have around

What an eloquent young gentleman, no doubt his grandfather would be very proud of him and all the family today.

Tomorrow will be a good day.

Thank you to captain sir Tom Moore family for sharing intimate funeral service of a remarkable man💙💙💙 RIP Captain Sir Tom💙💙💙

Wonderful but so difficult for her

RIP. Wonderful that even though there are restrictions we are all able to share a small extract of the final farewell to a man who touched all our hearts. It’s great that the modern world allows us to do that. A very different world to the one he entered.

Is this footage from the private funeral, the one where Tom requested film crews be in attendance?

His daughter is milking this. Thought it was meant to be a private funeral?

EMOTIONAL BLACKMAIL MAIL KEEPS IN POURING

May his soul rest in peace.

Captain Sir Tom was a good man. He will be remembered honorably.

good luck

Tomorrow will be a good day.

Better history than Chelsea
