"Fabian was everything," Beverly said. "He was young. He was bright-spirited and so, so smart. I'm just totally, totally in disbelief that he's no longer going to be there."
Beverly told WJZ she spoke with Gonzalez's mother.
There have not been any arrests in the case after two armed suspects ran into the store robbed some customers, shot Gonzalez and took off.
"His mother told me this morning that he was so, so kind," Beverly said. "And he was. She did a good job with her boys. It's more than heartbreaking. I'm totally devastated. So, I can imagine the pain that his family is experiencing right now."
The family told WJZ they are planning for Fabian's funeral and want justice in the case.
Police are now searching for two suspects behind the brutal crime.
