People are baking cookies to honor Christopher Chester, the 9-year-old New Hampshire boy who died last week while delivering cookies to a friend.

Christopher Chester died Oct. 23.

An Indiana woman touched by Christopher’s final act of kindness began a #Cookies4Christopher campaign on Facebook and Twitter using #Cookies4Christopher.

Christopher, a fourth-grader from Sandown, N.H., died Oct. 23 while walking through the neighborhood with his dad. He had a heart condition his parents were unaware of, reported the Union Leader.

A GoFundMe page created to help the family pay for Wednesday’s funeral has raised more than $30,000.
