Mary Wilson, a founding member of the Supremes, the trailblazing group from the 1960s that spun up 12 No. 1 singles on the musical charts and was key to Motown’s legendary sound, died on Monday at her home in Henderson, Nev. She was 76.

Ms. Wilson’s death was confirmed by her publicist, Jay Schwartz. No cause of death was given.

From 1964 to 1965, the Supremes, whose original members included Florence Ballard and Diana Ross as the lead singer, released hit songs such as “Where Did Our Love Go?” “Baby Love,” “Come See About Me” and “Stop! In the Name of Love.”’

The New York Times and other publications will post a full obit sometime today.

Would love to do the crip walk all over his grave.

That was terrible. You know, hate the guy if you want. Hate his politics, that's fine. But he had loved ones mourning his loss. His death mattered to someone.

I thought we were better than that.
