Notes

2009-08-01 - Identified through on-line information from Chad Boorsma. -- The congregation approved purchasing the organ in March of 1968 to replace a Kilgen organ that had served the church since October, 1946. The Tellers organ cost $30,000 plus $7,000 to improve the pipe chambers. The organ has eight levels of memory. -Database Manager
