Notes

2013-05-06 - This entry describes an original installation of a new pipe organ. Identified by Bob Moody, based on personal knowledge of the organ. -- Considerable renovation of the church made the acoustics much more organ-friendly. The owners of Taylor and Boody and the second generation family in the firm attend this church. At the time of installation, Carol Taylor, George Taylor's wife, was organist. Voicing was done by Bruce Shull. Several prepared-for stops have been installed and several remain. -Database Manager

2016-07-25 - Updated through online information from Bob Moody.<br> Taylor and Boody supplied the "prepared-for stops" to complete the original stoplist. See www.taylorandboody.com for details. -Database Manager
