2013-02-23 - Updated through online information from William Wymond. -- In 1978 a new, exposed 11 rank Great Division (chests and pipes) was added by the Reuter Company and was placed on two chests in front of the organ grill openings. In 1982 an 8 rank Positive division added using the chests of the old Great division located in their original position just behind one of the two grill openings. Later a Trumpet was added to the Positive division made by Shopps. From 2005 - 2007 the church sanctuary was torn down and a new, larger one was build. At that time the Moller, Opus 8299, was replaced by Casavant's Opus 3862. <br>A few ranks, including the Choir 8' Concert Flute, the Positive 4' Flute, and the Pedal 16' Contrebass and 16' Bourdon were incorporated in the Casavant. The organ was otherwise parted out with the 4 manual Moller console, a later addition bought from St. Michael's and All Angels Church of Dallas, sold to the Central Presbyterian Church of NYC. The 1978 Reuter Great division, chests and pipes, was sold to a church in Kansas. Other ranks and chests were sold individually to various churches and individuals. -Database Manager
