NOTES
The organ is a stock model, free-standing and encased Möller 'Portable'
with an attached and retractable keydesk.
This organ was originally built for Montavilla Methodist Church in Port-
land, Oregon. In the 1950's, it was moved to St. Anthony's RC in that
same city.
It was restored for the Ravenna Presbyterian congregation by Marceau &
Assoc. of Portland ca. 2000. It was located on the central axis of the
room. The original 5 pneumatic shutter engines had been replaced by a
trace rod connecting all the shutters, and mechanically linked to the
expression shoe. Oddly, the expression shutters are stamped with opus
number 5263.
The church was closed a short time thereafter by the Seattle Presbytery,
and the congregation merged with Wallingford Presbyterian. The organ had
been for sale for a couple of years. On Monday June 12, 2006, the organ
was placed for sale on keyboardtrader.com by Jim Stettner for the church.
It sold by Thursday, June 15 to Art Hawn of Springfield, Oregon.
The organ was removed in August, 2006, loaded onto a truck, driven to
Springfield, Oregon, unloaded, and installed in by James R. Stettner dba
Puget Sound Pipe Organs assisted by Michael J. Gagnon.
In 2013, the organ was moved for the 4th time since its original installa-
tion. It was removed from the Hawn residence in Springfield, Oregon, and
re-installed at Emmaus Lutheran in adjacent Eugene, Orgon by Hochhalter,
Inc. of Wilsonville, Oregon.
