Captain Sir Tom Moore, the British World War II veteran who captured hearts around the world as he raised nearly $45 million for health workers by walking around his garden, has died at 100 after testing positive for the coronavirus, according to an announcement on his Twitter account.
His family announced Moore's death Tuesday, noting only that his death occurred in 2021.
“The last year of our father’s life was nothing short of remarkable. He was rejuvenated and experienced things he’d only ever dreamed of,” Moore's family said in a statement. “Whilst he’d been in so many hearts for just a short time, he was an incredible father and grandfather, and he will stay alive in our hearts forever.’’
