History: The organ was rebuilt in 1988 by H. Ronald Poll & Associates, Inc.
of Salt Lake City, as the firm's opus 16. The rebuild included new stop actions,
manual and pedal keyboards, key contacts, solid state switching, combination
action, relay, swell controllers, tremolos, chime action, blower, and Fagot
pipes. Other improvements included insulating the walls and installing new
thermostatically controlled heaters. The old Vox humana stop was replaced by the
Fagot; the rest of the pipework was retained and revoiced. Also retained were
chests, reservoir/regulators, shutters, and console shell.
