Carole Raymont McGoldrick Of The Secrets Has Died
Carole Raymont McGoldrick, the low voice with the girl group, The Secrets, passed away June 16 after a long illness. She was 66. Along with Karen Gray, Jackie Allen and Pat Miller, the quartet formed as the Sonnettes at Shaw High School in Cleveland, Ohio in 1961. The girls eventually came to the attention of Johnny Madora and David White (of Spokesmen fame) who got them a contract with Philips Records. While their first single, "The Boy Next Door" reached #18 in 1964, three other singles failed to chart before the Secrets disbanded in 1965. Carole and Patty continued as the Memories for a year before ending their show biz careers. Carole became a mother of two and worked in the sales and executive recruiting industry.
