Vocalist Mary Wilson, who co-founded the Supremes as a 15-year-old in a Detroit housing project and stayed with the fabled, hitmaking Motown Records trio until its dissolution in 1977,  died on Monday night at her home in Las Vegas. She was 76.

Wilson’s longtime publicist, Jay Schwartz, reported that she died suddenly. The circumstances of her death were not immediately revealed. Funeral services will be private because of COVID, he said, but there will be a public memorial later this year.

 

My wife & I just watched a REELZ show yesterday about the founding of the Supremes. It included a lot of interviews with Mary Wilson. She was a class act.

 

RIP Ms. Wilson. Thanks for the music. You will be missed.
