Notes

2023-04-11 - This entry represents the installation of a used organ from another church and province. It was originally built for Notre-Dame-des-Neiges in Masson, Quebec. Unknown what - if any - tonal or mechanical changes may have been made at the time of the moving and reinstallation. -Jim Stettner

2025-01-16 - Updated through online information from Mr. Graeme Arbuckle (January 14, 2025): The organ is still being used, as I noted in my original update on the organ back in 2023. It should also be noted that the organ is being disposed of and replaced with a brand new digital organ. -Jim Stettner
