Notes

2011-12-31 - In the early 1950's, an organ was installed by an unknown builder in the church's former sanctuary. Much of the organ included materials from the Hillgreen-Lane organ that had been damaged by fire at the Masonic Temple in Grand Rapids. The current organ, installed ca. 1963 by Mutchler Organ Company, reused materials from the 1950's instrument. Mutchler installed a Klann console and additional ranks made in the Netherlands (likely by Stinkers). In 2011, Scott Smith Pipe Organs repaired the pipework and installed a new static reservoir. -Database Manager
