Paul R. Marchesano on August 29th, 2024:
"...the 1911 Church History states that "the first organ was put into the church in 1836." What type of organ it was is not recorded. The next organ was installed in 1896 and would last until 1946, when a new organ, a gift of Mrs. Henry L. Romich, took its place." -- Church history page
