Harrison Gilks of Fredericton sparked a movement of hope and adventure in the final months of his life, ticking off “bucket list” items with the help of community support as he fought cancer. 

The 18-year-old, who had more than 300,000 followers on his TikTok for his series, died Thursday. 

In the last eight months, Harrison’s local community raised money in support of his final wishes that included a helicopter ride in New York City and Jasper, Alta., meeting players from the Montreal Canadiens, attending a Los Angeles Rams football game and sunning himself in Mexico.

Trevor Gilks said his son got along with everyone
