Paul R. Marchesano on April 17th, 2024:

Organ is being replaced in 2025 with French Symphonic Casavant. Current Holtkamp removed June 2024 and given to Roseville Lutheran in Minnesota; J. F. Nordlie will combine selected pipework from the Holtkamp and selected pipework from Roseville Lutheran's 1978 3/22 Moller, along with new pipework, for Nordlie's new 3/57 Op. 63, with a 2024 completion date.
