NOTES
The chapel portion of the funeral home was built in 1919. This organ is believed to
be an original installation, however there was evidence to suggest it might not be.
The junction board in the back of the console was labeled, Baltimore, Maryland. How-
ever, on the wall of the pipe chamber was the Möller blueprint for the organ which
was labeled for Bleitz Funeral Parlor. It is possible that the organ was purchased
and installed used by the Möller representative.

The pipe chamber was at the front of the chapel with a grille-cloth covered opening
high on the wall. The console was in a room on the right side of the chapel. The
organ was enlarged in 1953 by Balcom and Vaughan of Seattle with 2 ranks added.
