Gil F. Adams built a large organ for Saint Thomas' Church in the style of a classical French organ. The instrument was donated to the church by the Loening family. In 1995 a new organ was commissioned by Taylor & Boody. It is not clear whether it replaced this instrument, or whether the Adams organ is still present in the church.
