In trouble times during the 1980's this comment was made:

The Herald/Citizen has been a part of the Culver community for more than half its life; at its best it was a leader in the town's affairs and even at its worst it held us together by providing something for us to complain about. What more could we ask? - John Houghton

The History of the Marmont Herald - Culver Citizen had been broke down into 5 sections so that it can be added to and coreeceted more easlily - as on piece it was getting somewhat unruly, news articles and boigraphies/obits have also been moved off the pages.
