IMHO Whatever they say about who contributed what to a group they all contributed in their own way and made the sound and the dream just like The Beatles would have never been what they were without Ringo.
RIP Mary... you were very part of the exciting sound of the mid 60s.

I remember chatting to Jerry Lee Lewis' guitarist Buck Hutcheson (who went to that great big gig in the sky himself in 2019), and he told me how they toured Australia with Mary Wilson in 1989 and everyone was amazed at just how good a singer she was in her own right. A very sad day.
I see Diana Ross has written a nice message on Twitter:
I just socially aware up to this news , my condolences to you Mary's family ,I am reminded that each day is a gift ,I have so many wonderful memories of our time together "The Supremes " will live on ,in our hearts 💕
Here's one of my favourite videos of The Supremes (they looked very cool in "street" clothes!):
