Notes

2014-02-07 - This entry describes alterations to an existing organ. Identified by T. Daniel Hancock, based on personal knowledge of the organ. -- 1930 Moller (two manuals) was moved from a Kansas City Church by organist Paul "Kip" Smith and volunteers from the church and area, c. 1990's. Subsequent additions, and the procurement of a mid-20th century three manual Austin console increased the organ to its present size. The work was done by Kip Smith, with assistance from Jerry Dawson. -Database Manager
