The Herald is reinventing itself; but it also is restoring itself. Today, Marcia Harris’ column is back. Thursday, Marilyn Hagerty returns.

Today, we introduce an expanded help page, which will direct readers to an array of agencies ready to aid in flood recovery.

As for the Herald staff: We are situated in Manvel, N.D., a community whose generosity continues to overwhelm us. We’ve proven we can publish a daily newspaper under adverse circumstances. We’ll be working to restore and improve as much of the old Herald as we can.

We know readers appreciate the Herald’s persistence, and we appreciate your loyalty and your patience. We’re all standing, and we’re standing together.
