*Remarks:

   Tower tubes by Deagan, originally with
   hour and half-hour strike,
   Angelus, Praise Peal and roll player,
   installed by R.Lofink.
   Clock was remuddled, roll player
   vandalized and both keyboards vanished
   long before early 1990s; dampers and
   strikers also vanished from the belfry.
   Church members replaced the base of
   the chime frame in 2006, after which
   Chime Master Systems rehung the tubes
   (on original striker/suspension
   plates), installed new strikers and
   controls.
