Notes
2010-12-06 - Identified through online information from Jeff Scofield. -Database Manager
2014-01-16 - Updated through online information from Michael J. Garceau. -Database Manager
2016-11-27 - Updated through online information from Rev. Peter Joyce. <br>On December of 2015, the motor burnt out completely. In 2016, it was rebuilt and modernized to more efficient and much quieter engine. This work was completed by Messrs. Czelusniak et Dugal, Inc. The organ still needs repairs to many of the pouches and there are some dead keys as a result, but it is played every week as part of our parish worship -Database Manager
