The Choir division and a new III-manual console were added by Austin in 1924. The organ was purchased by Faith Lutheran Church and was moved to that location by church volunteers. The facade pipes and the wood panels are from the Austin organ built for the Catholic Cathedral in Yakima, WA. The console and panels were refinished by the Bond firm. The facade pipes were stenciled by Dean Applegate. [Received on line from James R. Stettner April 21, 2009.]
