2001 Luley & Associates  enlargement

In 1967 the Möller company placed a new organ in the First Presbyterian Church in Edgewood. Due to lack of money it could not be completed. In 1978 a new four-manual console was installed. However, the organ could still not be finished. This was eventually done in 2000/2001 by the company Peter Luley & Associates. On November 11, 2001, the organ was re-opened with a solemn service, followed by a concert by Gordon Turk.
