Notes
2009-12-16 - Identified through online information from Chad Boorsma. -- The organ was originally built by Schantz in 1981. During this expansion, several ranks of pipes were replaced. The facade was replaced with pipes made of polished zinc. On Sunday, April 13, 1997, there was an organ rededication service and a concert given by Robert Brewer. -Database Manager
