Captain Tom Moore's daughter has revealed that she hid vile abuse from online trolls from her father - and said it would have broken him.
Hannah Ingram-Moore spoke about her father's finals days in hospital, their final family holiday to the Caribbean and how his heart would have been "broken" if he had known about online abuse the family received.
She told BBC Breakfast: "We really had to use our family resilience, our emotional resilience, and we never told him because I don't think he could ever have understood it.
"I think it would have broken his heart honestly, if we had said to him, 'people are hating us', I couldn't tell him.
"How do you rationalise to a 100-year-old man that something so incredibly good could attract such horror?
"So we contained it within the four of us and we said that we won't play to them. We said we are not talking to those vile minority.
"And latterly when it was as horrific as it could be, we didn't tell him, and it really did hurt and it really is really hard to deal with.
"They will never make this amazing thing negative."
The family were targeted with abuse following their gifted trip to Barbados, which Hannah said was just amazing.
"He sat in 29 degrees outside, he read two novels, he read the newspapers every day, and we sat and we talked as a family, we went to restaurants (because we could there) and he ate fish on the beach and what a wonderful thing to do.
"I think we were all so pleased we managed to give him that."
He died aged 100 at Bedford Hospital on February 2 after testing positive for Covid -19.
She also spoke about the grief the family felt since his passing, and described his final moments with his family.
"It is difficult, we were a five, and we have gone to a four, and that is really difficult to say. We have lost a huge part of our lives," she said.
She added that she is still naturally checking in on his bedroom in the morning, admitting that it was hard to break a habit like that.
"He would not have wanted us to feel sorrow, he just wouldn't, and I am my father's daughter at the end of the day and he would say when you're gone you're gone.
"And he has gone, and we had our lovely goodbyes. I don't feel cheated. None of us feel cheated, we just feel sad."
"It is an ache because he is here, doing the first food shop without his things on it, it is really hard."
"We thought the oxygen would help, that he would be robust enough, (but) the truth is he just wasn't. He was old and he just couldn't fight it," she added.
Hannah explained that it became clear early on that he would not be able to fight the virus, she spoke about how she was sat in full PPE next to her father and had a "really lovely conversation."
"The thing that he was so proud of, it was oozing out of him, he said 'I'm coming back out, there is more fundraising in me yet and I am coming back out to walk'.
"He felt so proud of the foundation, and he articulated it so passionately.
"I said to him in the last few days, 'so, what do you want to eat when you come home?, and we decided it was steak and chips.
"He was really excited about coming out for steak and chips and getting his frame back outside and his walker.
"The last real conversation was positive and about carrying on, and that's a lovely place to be."
