Notes
2011-11-24 - Identified through online information from George Carlson. -- Organ will be replaced by a II/P 26 rank Letourneau instrument (Opus 125) in mid-2012. Disposition of this organ is uncertain. We would like to totally overhaul and return it to the old church, now St. Andrew's Chapel, but cost may be prohibitive. -Database Manager
2011-12-05 - Updated through online information from George Carlson. -- Organ to be replaced by Orgues Letourneau Ltee Opus 125 in 2012. Disposition of this organ is yet to be determined. -Database Manager

2012-04-29 - Updated through online information from George Carlson. -- Due to the high cost of restoration compared to the anticipated use in our chapel, we have decided to allow Milnar to remove the organ and either refiurbish for sale or part out.
