Notes
2008-02-26 - Identified through on-line information from James R. Stettner. -- This was the transplanting of the existing organ installed in 1994 by Meadway & Stettner of Monroe, WA into the new church. It was installed on the floor in the rear, right corner in essentially "as is" condition. Tonal resources: 8' Open Diapason - 73 pipes; 16' Stopped Diapason - 97 pipes; 4' Harmonic Flute - 73 pipes; 8' Dulciana 61 pipes (73 available); and 8' Clarinet - 61 pipes (73 available). -Database Manager
2008-06-08 - Updated through on-line information from James R. Stettner. -- Later in 2007, the church decided that they wanted the organ on the rear ledge above the Priest's and Lay sacristies where the future enlarged organ was to go. It was dismantled in the autumn, and re-installation was completed in May 2008. The original Clarinet - installed long before St. Aidan's acquired the organ - had been racked on a chest meant for a tc 8' Dulciana. The toe holes were never big enough to provide a proper volume of wind. So the Clarinet was removed to storage, and a used Kimball Dulciana the church had acquired was racked in its place. The existing Dulciana was then tuned as a flat Unda Maris. Future additions will include a 4'/2' Principal unit, an 8' Oboe, an independent 2-2/3' Nasard, and the chimes on a new all-electric action. -Database Manager
2020-04-09 - Updated through online information from James R. Stettner. -- Sadly, the church has been essentially over-run by evangelicals who don't want the organ. It was removed February 10, 11, 12, 2020 by Puget Sound Pipe Organs, and will be replaced by a Nord device. The pipes and components will be re-purposed in other projects. -Database Manager

NOTES
The pneumatic action chimes were refurbished by Norm Gregory from another used organ
and installed by him as a surprise for Easter, 1997 in the original location. They have
not yet been reinstalled in the new church. The stoplist was slightly amended between
the original installation and reinstallation in the new church.
The organ has been a 'temporary' installation for 21 years pending enlargement and
complete rebuilding.
