'Beacon Of Love And Strength': Father Of 2 Killed In Willowbrook Shooting

WILLOWBROOK, IL – Reginald Meadows, the 31-year-old who was killed in a mass shooting early Sunday morning in unincorporated Willowbrook, was the sole provider for two children, according to a fundraising website.

DuPage County sheriff's deputies have yet to announce any arrests in the shooting, which authorities say left Meadows dead and 22 others injured at a Juneteenth celebration. No arrests have been announced.

A GoFundMe page for Meadows' family was created shortly after Meadows' killing. As of Monday morning, it had raised $6,600.

Meadows' children are RJ and Gabby.

"Reggie Meadows, a beacon of love and strength, fell victim to a devastating crossfire incident that shattered the peace and joy of what should have been a day of celebration," the GoFundMe page said. "Reggie worked tirelessly to ensure that his children had a stable and nurturing environment, striving to give them the best possible future."

The family's attorney, Robert Fakhouri, said the children are 11 and 13. Meadows was a driver for a local moving company, the lawyer said.

"He was a hardworking person," Fakhouri said in an interview.

The money raised through GoFundMe will help RJ and Gabby navigate life without their father, the page said.

"Your generous donations will help create a financial safety net, enabling them to access essential resources, pursue their education, and find stability as they move forward," the page said.
