Notes

2006-12-27 - Identified through online information from James R. Stettner. -- The organ is actually installed at the right end of the shallow and extremely wide, semi-circular room. It is installed atop a pedestal with the added Great 8' Spitz Principal partially en façade. -Database Manager

2009-03-30 - Updated through online information from James R. Stettner. -- The origins of the Kimball which was rebuilt and tonally altered for this installation are not documented. -Database Manager

2016-05-23 - Updated through online information from James R. Stettner. <br>I have since learned that this was a unit Kimball originally installed at First Congregational in Kirkland, Washington. It was later acquired by a private party in Wenatchee (possibly Patrick Swayze). Upon his death, the organ was made available and installed at Holy Apostles by Harold Curryer. -Database Manager
