Database Manager on May 24th, 2019:
Updated by Shawn P. Keith, listing conversations with this person as the source of the information: John Novosad. Church closed and building sold into private hands in 2018. Organ remains in-situ and unaltered.

Database Manager on January 8th, 2015:
Updated through online information from Shawn P. Keith. -- The organ retains its original tubular-pneumatic operating systems, which had failed sufficiently by about 1985 that the organ was silenced. The congregation has shrunk to the point that the survival of the church is questioned. The organ remains in-situ but unplayable.

Database Manager on November 5th, 2007:
Updated through on-line information from James R. Stettner.
