Family mourns Reginald Meadows, killed in Willowbrook mass shooting
, and people ran for cover. Twenty-two people were shot. Reginald Meadows was the only one who was killed.Reginald's fiancée, along with their 13-year-old daughter and 11-year-old son are now left with a huge void."It's really a nightmare for them. I just can't imagine what they're going through right now," said Darren Meadows."All I could do was just tell him that everything is going to be all right, and he's still with them.
The DuPage County Sheriff's office spent three days processing the crime scene. But as of late Tuesday, they had not found who opened fire first in the mass shooting early Sunday morning – nor released information about how many different guns fired back."All they could do is just cry," said Darren Meadows."They're minds are everywhere right now."
Right now, Darren Meadows' mind is on the last conversation he had with his brother – a call hours before the mass shooting. "We've always told each other that we loved each other after phone calls or face-to-face. But that day, we were joking; we're playing around, and told each other, 'Bye!' and we never told each other we loved each other," said Darren Meadows,"The biggest regret of my life."
Darren Meadows said his family was preparing to have a 10-year memorial for their mother the day after the shooting. Now instead of honoring her, the family is forced to bury his brother.
