GLENVIEW, IL – A GoFundMe campaign has been initiated to aid the family of Carlos Jesus Guzman, 19, and Jose Antonio Guzman, 16, who tragically lost their lives shielding their three-year-old cousin from gunfire on Saturday evening.

Carlos, known for his humor and love of soccer, had recently graduated from Glenbrook South High School. Jose, a talented artist and aspiring soccer player, was set to begin his junior year there. The family is grappling with the loss of both sons and siblings. The campaign has garnered $36,763 of its $50,000 goal through 633 donations.
