remove initial quote marks - or add second in wordpress

I have some testimonials that I put in block quotes.
http://80b.b9a.myftpupload.com/testimonials/

Why does it only add the initial quote mark and not the last one? How do I either get rid of initial " or add a final one? I inspected the element and blockquote doesn't reference any quote mark that I could find.

blockquote {
margin: 0px;
padding: 14px 40px;
}

blockquote, blockquote::before {
font-style: italic;
}

if you want to add end of text with quotes, you can follow this link way.

You need to work around with CSS and quote images.

Your site theme does not have end quote for "blackquote" style

Steve, I tried your suggestion but it doesn't seem to work. Not sure what I missed. I changed the position from left to right -20px. Please advise. Also, the blockquote:before doesn't say media="all" . Is that something I should keep in for the right one? I am new to this type of css.

media="all"
blockquote::after {
content: "\201C";
display: block;
font-size: 30px;
height: 0;
right: -20px;
position: relative;
top: -10px;
}
