The memory of Captain Sir Tom Moore is to be marked "properly and appropriately", the government said.
The 100-year-old, who raised almost £33m for NHS charities by walking laps of his garden, died with coronavirus in Bedford Hospital on Tuesday.
Health secretary Matt Hancock said he had "touched the hearts of the nation and we should remember that".
Meanwhile, dozens of tributes have been left outside the veteran's home in Marston Moretaine in Bedfordshire.
When announcing his death via a family statement, his daughters Hannah Ingram-Moore and Lucy Teixeira said they "shared laughter and tears" with their father in their final few hours together.
They said his final year of fundraising had been "nothing short of remarkable".
He tested positive for Covid-19 last week. His family said due to other medication he was receiving for pneumonia, he was unable to be vaccinated.
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, rum in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "Holy crap what a ride!"

A man with a lovely soul - a life well-lived.  RIP and thank you for your generosity.

He will be missed by humanity, but he is well received in Heaven.
