2019-07-24 - Updated by Jonathan Gier, who has heard or played the organ. Further details and stoplist available on the Berghaus website. Was very familiar with the sound of the instrument since I was a cantor from 2004-2009! -Database Manager
2019-07-24 - Updated by Jonathan Gier, who has heard or played the organ. <br> <br>The organ case was built using some of the original wood from the church interior. The instrument is encased fully in an \"all-in-one\" unit with the console in the center. I received this information from a trusted friend, Tom Carroll, who was present both at the time of the church renovation and when the organ was built about 10 years later. I was a cantor at St. Francis for about 5 years. The organ is played regularly for at least 3 weekend liturgies and occasionally during the week for funerals, weddings, and other services. -Database Manager
