Notes

2011-04-01 - Identified through on-line information from Chad Boorsma -- The organ was originally in Twelfth Street Christian Reformed Church, also in Grand Rapids. The instrument was rebuilt, digital stops added, and installed here by G. M. Buck Pipe Organs. The organ was given by family and friends in memory of Harold Freeman (1935-2004), former organist/choirmaster at the church. The instrument was dedicated July 21, 2010, with a recital by Dr. Glynn Jenkins. -Database Manager
