Ian Wendt and Organ Dedication -- August 25

Ian Wendt played songs of Stephen Foster during the dedication.  John Elwood will MC the event and introduced Dave and Dorothy Wahl, the donors of the organ to Historic Cordelia.  

The new organ is a "Golden Toned", made by the Beethoven Organ Co., of Washington, NJ.  John Elwood and Sally Burkhart installed it on July 9, 2024.  The organ was in their home for several years after John and Sally brought it back to life with a complete restoration. The organ was owned by Miss Aubrey Wetherell of Pullman. She gave it to her friends and neighbor, Tom and Elizabeth Wahl of Pullman and Genesee in the late 1970’s. It was given to Cordelia by Dave and Dorothy Wahl of Genesee, descendants of Tom and Elizabeth. 

The previous organ was donated by John and Sally on April 7, 2007. It was found disassembled and restored by their son. The old organ found a good home in Lapwai Idaho. Its new owner is a retired minister, music teacher, bus driver and substitute teacher.
