  RIP Captain Sir Tom Moore. He’s no doubt lived a great and interesting life, he came across as a real Gentleman and many young people would do well to emulate his ideals and virtues. Sad news indeed.

  Mere words are insufficient.
  
  I'm not ashamed to admit a shed a few tears when I leaned the sad news.
