2024-02-07 - Updated through online information from Clifford H. Kern, III, Ph.D.: The Shofar stop was indeed missing, but it was installed (with, it turns out, with original EM Skinner pipes) several years ago, and is well used. Can be verified by Dr. Marcus St. Julien of Loyola University who is also the Temple's organist and choir/music director. -Jim Stettner
