Updated through online information from James R. Stettner.
The 'Our Church' page of the parish website states, "A new organ was acquired in 1991, built by Bond Organ Builders at a total cost of about $109,000. funded in large part by a generous donation from the Nell Mahaffey estate and numerous other gifts and memorials. The new organ uses the chimes and some of the pipes and framework from the old organ. The two manual organ has about 2000 pipes, with 16 stops and 18 ranks."
Database Manager on February 6th, 2013:
Updated through online information from Joe O'Donnell. -- The organ incorporates some pipes as well as structural and wind system components from the church's earlier Kilgen organ, but is for all practical purposes a new instrument. Straight manual stops are on slider chests; electro-mechanical action is employed for unit stops.
