Paul R. Marchesano on July 30th, 2024:

This organ was previously at St. Vincent's Hospital, Normandy (St. Louis), MO. It was moved to its current location, a loft built at the back of the church
specifically to hold the organ, and altered in 1978 by Louis IX Associates, Inc. I am not entirely sure what alterations were made, but this is what I understand happened: the flat pedalboard was replaced with a radial, curved one and the pedal stop (but not the couplers) extended at the top by 2 notes to conform to the new pedalboard; some pipes were mitered (twice I think) to fit under the roof of the church; one or more stops were cut down; the trumpet stop was replaced. William Memmott (Louis IX Associates) had replaced an original Oboe with a Trompette.

-- Lenore Horner on PIPORG-L, 11 July 1996
