Notes
2006-01-09 - Identified through online information from James R. Stettner. -- The Smith instrument was removed in 1929 by Balcom & Provorse and reinstalled in Bellingham's Harlow-Hollingsworth Mortuary (later called Jones Funeral Home). In 1992, the organ was purchased by Gordon Sullivan of Custer, Washington, just north of Bellingham. The original toy counter had been removed when the organ was installed in the Bellingham funeral home. For the reinstallation in Custer, Bob Maes of Kansas City found a suitable replacement. -Database Manager
2024-12-31 - Mr. Sullivan passed-away ca. 2022. The house was sold with the organ, and the new owner contacted Puget Sound Pipe Organs about placement options. The instrument was listed on Facebook: Pipe Organ Garage Sale and acquired by Stephen Mulcock of Seattle who is gradually installing the organ in his home in 2024. -Jim Stettner
