The nation has been invited to take to their doorsteps and join in a national clap for Captain Sir Tom Moore on Wednesday evening.
The House of Commons stood silent for one minute on Wednesday lunchtime ahead of Prime Minister's Questions.
After the tribute, Boris Johnson announced there would be a tribute tonight for Captain Tom - who dies on Tuesday.
Cpt Tom, a World War Two veteran, raised almost £40million for NHS charities in lockdown by walking around his garden, just ahead of his 100th birthday.
The clap will be held on Wednesday evening at 6pm.
Speaker Sir Lindsay Hoyle said of Sir Tom: “His dignity and determination in raising money to support the NHS charities caught the nation’s mood at the most difficult time.
“He exemplified the best of our values.”
Prime Minister Boris Johnson said Captain Sir Tom Moore dedicated his life to serving others, and encouraged people to join in a “national clap” in memory of him.
Mr Johnson told the Commons: “We all now have the opportunity to show our appreciation for him and all that he stood for and believed in.
“That is why I encourage everyone to join in a national clap for Captain Tom and all those health workers for whom he raised money at 6pm this evening.”
