2022-06-23 - This entry represents the rebuilding of an existing organ. A .pdf document on the parish website states, *"1962 is the first year documentation could be found referencing repair work on the organ. In that year, it’s recorded that the console was deteriorating. A decision was made to replace the console and rebuild the organ. Mr. Hale, from Hale Organ Works in El Dorado, Arkansas, did all the refurbishing and rebuilding. He also installed pipes that had been in storage since the organ had been moved. All the pipes were put to one large room on the north side of the choir loft. Work on the organ was finished in 1963. In a letter from the pastor to the Bishop, dated April 9th, 1962, authorization was requested to spend $10,000 for this project."* -Jim Stettner
