Updated through online information from Mark Funk. -- I helped with the removal of the Casavant Organ. The sanctuary has been remodeled, and the console of the organ was removed and bought by Renaissance Organs of Ann Arbor, Michigan. Some of the original pipework was melted down or reclaimed. Other pipes were to be incorporated into the new Nichols & Simpson organ, which is to be dedicated in February of 2009.
