They said it was a "solemn, dignified and fitting tribute to a man who inspired millions".The Army veteran's funeral was attended by just eight members of his immediate family, in line with Covid-19 restrictionsCaptain Sir Tom Moore's coffin was lifted from the hearse on to the shoulders of the six bearers from the Yorkshire Regiment in dignified silence.
Then, from the north-west, came first the rumble then the roar of the engines of the wartime Dakota as it flew overhead in tribute through clear blue skies. Three volleys were fired by the 14-man firing party as the coffin was carried into Bedford Crematorium, followed by his two daughters and their families - people who would reflect and remember the cherished times they spent with their father and grandfather.
On top of the coffin, draped in the union jack, were Captain Sir Tom's war medals, his knighthood medal, and a specially commissioned officer's sword. On one side was his regiment's motto "Fortune Favours the Brave" and on the other, his motto, "tomorrow will be a good day". The service lasted just over an hour, featuring music he had requested, and a specially-recorded version of the song Smile.The service celebrated his life, and thanked him for his incredible contribution - to his family, and to the world.

I am proud of Sir Tom,wish they had given him the rank of major.
Our Planet needs more exemples like this . Tribute to this marvelous man .
Remarkable man. Served his country when he was needed and at 100 yrs old did it again. Made us smile and gave us something to cheer on during bad times. Above all he was a breath of fresh air when being so positive in a negative world. Tomorrow will be a good day.
' Can you hear us Major Tom' ..we salute you now ' floating in your Tin can
jaketapper Believe is essential I gave you my trust and you didn't break it, you are who you say you are. I'll keep letting people know about your goodness and guaranteed business Kimberlykiss13
A pulse in the eternal mind, no less Gives somewhere back the thoughts by England given; Her sights and sounds; dreams happy as her day; And laughter, learnt of friends; and gentleness, In hearts at peace, under an English heaven.
RIP
Sir Tom family sure do love the media attention
Kris_Sacrebleu RIP to a hero and an example to all!
God rest his soul ♥
RIP Sir.
prince_scarf R.I.P Sir Tom, another bright star to day 'hello' to at night....
Many people are tired of seeing this but in reality, I think that SirTomMoore deserves all of this, considering some other famous people who are hardly a role model but appear on front covers all the time, he is worth looking up to. He’s not only raised the money, he inspired...
God rest your sweet soul 😇
jaketapper Saw Captain Sir Tom’s funeral & was crying my eyes out😭. I can’t get out of my mind how kind, sweet & self effacing this wonderful man was. His legacy will live on & I hope this will comfort his family. May his memory be a blessing & a reminder of all that is noble.
Death has nothing on your grandeur!
I salute you, Sir.
Tomorrow will be a good day.
RIP
RiP the good you did will and should remain with us for another 99 years. RIP
jaketapper It is the quiet heroes who change the world.
Captain Sir Tom's achievements in reaching his personal objectives, simply to get stuck in and do his bit to help, wasn't Englishness, it wasn't Welshness, and neither was it Scottishness nor Irishness. It was Britishness; pure and simple! 🇬🇧
Kris_Sacrebleu 🙏
OscarNunezLA A true hero. Dear Captain, you have earned your rest.
Ohh for goodness sake. Tried to avoid this all day. Talk about wanting the lime lite. My Birthday too don’t need this. Had it all year.
RIP Dear Capitan!!! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
R.I.P Sir Tom ❤️
Captain Tom supported the NHS and is loved for it. The govt. are selling it off piecemeal behind our backs. The BBC is largely silent.
thought the family wanted space and peace to grieve...couldnt even give him a last peaceful day
jaketapper wasnt this dude a colonialist soldier?
So how many turned up to his funeral because I know friends who had to watch their relatives funeral on zoom?
Am I the only one who’s sick and tired of hearing about Capt. Tom ?
The world will be a much emptier place without this true hero. He will be remembered❤️
Rip Sir Tom
God bless
Such a quiet unassuming man, but inside ,..a giant.🌹
jaketapper 💔

jaketapper They should not taken him on a holiday to Barbados before he was vaccinated
jaketapper We should all be so humble. 'Tomorrow will be a good day'
he didn’t die of covid .... he died from prostrate cancer ...
Beautiful Service ❤️

jaketapper May he Rest In Peace. My heartfelt condolences to all that loved him.
jaketapper A funeral fit for a hero. Thank you for everything you've done Captain Sir Moore
jaketapper ❤️❤️
He went to Barbados for his holidays, l can't afford go to Weston super Mare for mine. I know the lad meant well but it detract from the government lack of support for our NHS.
To the nations grandfather. We salute you, thank you for everything you have done for us ❤️
True hero I watched on the tv and was moved to tears what he did for the NHS and fought in the war god bless you your a shining star 🌟
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_
