Notes

2007-06-20 - Identified through online information from Stanley R. Scheer. -- The organ was contracted between Casavant Frères and J. A. Hebert & Son, the Detroit-area Casavant representative and technician, who completed the installation of the organ in the church. -Database Manager

2015-08-17 - The church website describes this is a rebuild of the previous Welte; it also says that a chancel division and console were added in 1993, as well as a horizontal trumpet and 32' reed to the main organ. -Database Manager
