Notes

2008-02-19 - The Pilcher Organ was rebuilt by Greenwood Organ Service of Charlotte, North Carolina in the early 1960s. At that time the orginal facade pipes were removed and placed behind a modern facade on a new wind chest. The orignal Pilcher Console was replaced with a Reisner Console. In 1987 the organ was again failing, and the organ was rebuilt and enlarged by Pipe Organ Sales and Service of Lithonia, Georgia. The organ is now 13 ranks. -Database Manager
