2013-02-07 - This entry describes alterations to an existing organ. Identified by Randy Terry, based on personal knowledge of the organ. -- Following the additions and console changes made by Randy Terry and members of the congregation, John Hendriksen came and revoiced the entire flue-work of the organ in the Aeolian-Skinner tradition. Some time after this work was completed Milnar Organ Company built a new chest for the solo reeds added by Mr. Terry and built a new nameboard with new stop keys and installed this along with a 32 level Peterson combination action. The original Moller in-console electrical switching was retained. -Database Manager
