On September 11, 2001, Brian Kinney, a 28-year-old from Lowell, lost his life on United Airlines Flight 175 when the plane crashed into the South Tower of the World Trade Center.

On this September 11, his cousins in the Sonnabend family carried out “acts of kindness, hope, and love’’ to honor his memory.

The family baked cookies for the Massachusetts State Police, dropping them off at the Athol barracks. “This year we thank our police for keeping us safe,’’ a note with the cookies read. “God bless. We choose to ‘be the good.’ Thanks so much for all you do.’’

State police said it best: “Brian would be proud.’’
