I never seen this photo before. I can make out Mrs. Ross, Diana and Florence. And then is that Obie from the Four Tops in the back? Anyone know who the other woman is?

L-R Ernestine, Diana, Florence, Obie, Gwen Gordy
That is an adorable pic of Flo. Diana's mother is 47 in this picture - Diana certainly resembles her as she aged. Beautiful women.
I'd love to see some other shots from this. I guess Mrs. Ross traveled with them quite a bit - did she take the three of them under her wing? I guess that's why Diana has turned out to be such a great mother with having a roll model such as Ernestine.
Diana and her mother are beautiful women.
No surprise that Rhonda, Tracee and Chudney are gorgeous. I'd love to see some current pics of Flo's daughters - I'm sure that they are just as beautiful.
I wouldn't go patting Diana Ross on the back. Ernestine and the mothers of the other
Supremes did not have anywhere near the financial resources Diane did when she "raised" her children. They no doubt could not afford the private schools, nannies, limos etc,etc when they were raising their children.
Show me a single mother working two jobs, raising any number of kids and sends them to college, keeping them on the right path into adulthood and I will give her a standing ovation any day over diana ross' raising of kids.....GEEZ!
That's kind of bitter..Ernestine [[even without the "resources") did a great job with Diana. From what I have read all five of her kids are doing well. You want to begrudge her for that? It's not always about money, but about love - something apparently Ernestine taught Diana. We should all learn a lesson.
Like Ernestine?
Look don't be daff or feign ignorance. You know darn well you were praising Diane and her raising of five kids. Read back when I said: " Ernestine and the mothers of the other
Supremes did not have anywhere near the financial resources Diane did"
Now if you cannot understand what I wrote there in plain English, then you have a problem that I cannot help you with.
I don't need your help. I am curious as to what Diana did to you personally. From the thread on Eddie Unsung you were jumping up and down with joy about Eddie's wife's comments about Diana. Me and another person made the parallel of Mary [[who I love) and Tom Jones. And you shut up. They were young - we all had youthful indescrestions. Is this your reaction to all new members to this board?
Of course I don't know you and I'm not trying to shut you up but you didn't respond to questions on the Eddie thread. I'm asking for answers to my questions - peace out dude.
of course not - just asking a question - again - why so bitter?
Why the bashing of Diana and Eddie and giving a pass to Mary and Tom. I love them both and not judging but apparently you are. Simple question - why? I'm sure you've had alot of indescretions that you'd like to forget - who of us hasn't?
You so cute
I love rare pics of the Supremes...looks like this picture was taken in 1964/1965
You tell it Marv! Unreal. I dont find Diana girls gorgeous. Thye arer attractive in their own way,unique looking, but certainly not gorgeous IMO. Mrs Ross is often praised for being very fair vis a vis all the Supremes. One Supreme book had her speaking to Diana about the way she was treating Cindy and Mary and Diana admitted she was hard on them and displaced her frustration at Berry onto them.
y so bitter alex?Dont try to create problems here--doesnt work anymore. easy come easy go.
I really don't care to see you - just curious about answers to questions. You refusal speaks volumes - you and Luke go have your fun...[[he he he)
So you don't answer the questions - you sweetheart
Spelling is not your strong suit

Even before all the fame and number one hits they still looked like elegant superstars. The three of them [[Diana, Mary, Florence) sure knew how to present themselves. I wonder if Berry bought them those dresses? Florence said that he bought her some outfits in the early days whenever he saw something he thought "would look good on her" lol.

So this is where we are at? Insinuating that someone's children aren't attractive? How childish.
FloyJoy exactly! I've seen pictures of them from 1961, 62 and they were dressed like early 1960's fashion models! Taking it a step further, dressing nicely has long been a part of the Detroit culture for lack of a better word. Folks always at least tried to dress as sharp as possible when going out anywhere socially or to church there.The guys and the ladies put a lot of effort in their appearances.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. What is the old saying? If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything.
Here is Mary's daughter.
All beautiful children of beautiful ladies - too bad for ugle posters... [[you know who)
It sure is in the eyes of the beholder and I have perfect 20/20 here.....

This is suppose to be Florence's daughters. Don't know for certain.

Subtle subtle Skool. Excellent. And I gather our next step is "they don't have the advantages Diane had, having to borrow money from her and all".
Marv, do you begrudge every African American that was successful? That is belittling to you. You should be celebrating the success of all of them. That is way too bitter. Silly and unbecoming.
She is a talented comedian........
