Marsha started her professional singing career at age 13 and therefore, being underage, was chaperoned by our Mom who incidentally loved R&R music. Having a chaperone also made it easier to include the dancers in our travels.” - Ron Covey in 2011.
Dr. Ronald Covey, born June 9, 1947, was a lifelong Moses Lake resident. He graduated from Moses Lake High School in 1965, ran a chiropractic clinic on Third Avenue for about 30 years, served 3.5 four-year terms on city council, from 1996-2009, and three two-year terms as mayor of Moses Lake, from 2004-2009.
