(CNN) – Mary Wilson, a founding member of “The Supremes” has died at the age of 76, her publicist told CNN.
Wilson “passed away suddenly this evening,” according to a statement from her longtime friend and publicist, Jay Schwartz.

The singer was at her home in Henderson, Nevada. She is survived by her daughter, son, several grandchildren, a sister and brother.
Services will be private due to Covid-19 restrictions and a celebration of Wilson’s life will take place later this year, her publicist said.
