    Rest In Peace, Mary. Not only did she have charm, energy, positivity, grace, and a stellar voice, she also had fabulous dancing skills and was the best mover in The Supremes onstage too. We were lucky to have been able to see and hear her perform for six decades.

    The Supremes & Four tops are legendary. I’m not going to get into Black History Month but to have just opened today’s Los Angeles Times and not a single word on the passing of Mary Wilson was heart ❤️ breaking. One of the greatest vocal groups of all time and not a single headline. My condolences 💐 to the Wilson family.

    4:55 "Time goes by really quickly ... and if you don't enjoy your life, it's over. What was it all for?" True that, Mary. So glad you were able to enjoy so many great years as a beloved Supreme and Motown ambassador to the world! Your life means endless joy and musical memories for all time. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
