Notes

2022-04-07 - The church also acquired a rare Frobenius organ from Denmark this year with expenses paid by two Chicago-based foundations, the Rice Foundation and the Hooper Foundation. The organ was shipped and installed in time for Christmas services. Holy Family's organ loft had been silent since 1970, when the church sold its original Louis Mitchell [ed. Roosevelt/Tellers-Kent/Austin] organ in a desperate bid for money. -- Chicago Tribune • Dec 21, 2006 -Paul R. Marchesano
