I totally disagree without getting into a long dissertation on it. The Temptations specifically sent a telegram to Mary imploring her to stick by Flo, because it could happen to her or any one of them! Once Flo was out of the Supremes and down on her luck, Eddie Kendricks visited her and gave her cash to help her out. That is just few of the stories that I know about that shows that not most everyone in Motown turned on Flo. Al Abrams even acted as her manager for a short time after she was out of Motown and pursuing solo engagements.
