Captain Tom Moore has died in hospital after a brief battle with Covid-19 and pneumonia.
"It is with great sadness that we announce the death of our dear father, Captain Sir Tom Moore," his daughters said in a statement.
"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," his daughters said.
"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."
The WW2 veteran and beloved fundraiser lost his life having been taken to Bedford Hospital on Sunday.
He had been receiving treatment for pneumonia for some time and testing positive for Covid-19 last week.
The veteran's family confirmed his illness on Sunday, with a statement on Capt Sir Tom's Twitter page which said: "He was at home with us until today when he needed additional help with his breathing.
"He is being treated in a ward although he is not in ICU.
"The medical care he has received in the last few weeks has been remarkable and we know that the wonderful staff at Bedford Hospital will do all they can to make him comfortable and hopefully return home as soon as possible.
"We understand that everyone will be wishing him well.
"We are of course focussing on my father and will update you when we are able to."
