Hearts are heavy today as many mourn the passing of original Supremes member, Mary Wilson. We send our deepest condolences to her family, friends, fans and Motown family. Someday, We’ll Be Together. We share the released statement by Mr. Berry Gordy: I was extremely shocked and saddened to hear of the passing of a major member of the Motown family, Mary Wilson of the Supremes.... The Supremes were always known as the sweethearts of Motown. Mary, along with Diana Ross and Florence Ballard, came to Motown in the early 1960’s. After an unprecedented string of number one hits, television and nightclub bookings, they opened doors for themselves, the other Motown acts, and many, many others. I was always proud of Mary. She was quite a star in her own right and over the years continued to work hard to boost the legacy of the Supremes. Mary Wilson was extremely special to me. She was a trailblazer, a diva and will be deeply missed. Berry Gordy, Founder, Motown February 8, 2021
