A picture of the victims is at the link.

More is here.

Obituary:  Mary Weiss, lead singer of the 1960s girl group the Shangri-Las, has died at the age of 75, which means she was only about 16 when she sang the lead in the death rock classic, "Leader of the Pack."


Snip:


The Shangri-Las, consisting of Weiss, her sister Betty Weiss, 77, and twins Marge and Mary Ann Ganser, first rose to popularity around 1965 after performing together in local high school talent shows. After having their final reunion (without Mary Ann, who died in 1970 at the age of 22) in 1989, the group's song "Leader of the Pack" was honored by The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2019.


Her sister, Betty, is the only one of the quartet still alive.  Identical twins Mary Ann and Marge Ganser died in 1970 and 1998 respectively.
