If these walls could talk: 304 and 316 E. Jefferson

November 3, 2012

As part of our ongoing "virtual" walk through Culver -- most recently the downtown area -- we've been wandering through a business-rich offshoot of downtown, the eastern end of Jefferson Street. We're still on the north side of the street, where we'll stop by the now-defunct property at 304 E. Jefferson (that's lot 15 of the F. B. Harris Addtion, in case you were wondering, which you likely weren't).

Hansen was staple of Culver service, business for 5 decades

November 2, 2012

When Clara Hansen died last Tuesday, Culver lost one of its most beloved and dedicated citizens in a variety of areas.

Born and raised in Plymouth, the former Clara White and her husband Winfred came to town to stay in April, 1957, though she was a stranger neither to Culver nor its people by then, Clara having worked in several Plymouth businesses, including JC Penny’s, and become familiar with a number of Culverites there. The late Winfred was an avid fisherman, so Culver visits were nothing new to the couple.

‘Painter and Poet’ Millers set to return to Culver, reopen for business

Esther and Ward Miller, longtime proprieters of The Painter and the Poet Gallery at 307 North Main Street in Culver, announced last week their return to Culver after a 2011 move to Winona Lake. The couple plans to reopen their home-based business within a month, but as "The Painter and the Poet Studio," rather than "Gallery" as it was known before.
