2014-12-02 - This entry describes an original installation of a new pipe organ. Identified by John McCraney, based on personal knowledge of the organ. -- I attended the dedication concert in the fall of 1963. I later substituted on this organ 1969-70. It is in the photograph of the church interior at the top of the church's website. The exposed Great pipes can be seen st the chancel left. An organist is listed, so I am assuming the organ is in use. -Database Manager
