Notes

2016-01-05 - "Organ commissioned in conjunction with a complete renovation of the sanctuary by liturgical design consultant Terry Eason, a contract for a new organ was signed in 1995, with advisor Grigg Fountain, and then-organist Gene Featherstone leading the drive. The organ was installed in 1998, voiced in 1999, and dedicated by Duke Chapel organist David Arcus." (from builder's web site) -Database Manager
