During a voters meeting on October 19th, 1986 the chairman of the Organ Committee made a recommendation that this organ be sold to First Methodist Church in Gainsville, Florida for the sum of $13,000.00 The sale of this instrument was to go directly towards the deficit for the new Steiner-Reck pipe organ, as a loan was taken out from the Church Extension Fund by the Hosanna-Tabor to cover the costs of the new Steiner-Reck instrument.

Roman Lizak on May 15th, 2020:
