Notes
2010-07-10 - Identified through on-line information from James R. Stettner. -- This was the cleaning of the organ with three ranks of pipes replaced. It also included the purchase of a new three-manual console from Reuter, replacing the original console which was literally falling apart at the time. In 1973 three new ranks of pipes, a mixture and a Zimbelstern were added by Mr. Geisler. These projects increased the number of stops to 23. -Database Manager
