Database Manager on April 9th, 2020:

Identified through online information from James R. Stettner. -- This organ began life as a Kimball ballroom organ built for the Scottish Rite facility in Tacoma, Washington. That building later became Tacoma Bible Presbyterian Church. The ballroom organ was acquired by Tacoma organ tech. Homer R. Johnson ca. 1970 and installed with an unknown 2-manual console. Later, a Rodgers 33e 3-manual theatre organ console was added. a 4-rank Wurlitzer chest and ranks added over the years enlarged the organ to 8 ranks. This was the status when Ron Hemmi purchased the organ in 2000.
