Back in the dark ages I was a member of the Cedar Rapids Area Theater Organ Society (CRATOS). One of our bus trip outings took us to the Chicago area, and I think Leon was one of the places we visited. You can't imagine how loud this was in a tiny basement even though Leon had reduced the air pressure and revoiced the pipes.

One of the things we managed to do is restore the organ here: http://www.uscellularcenter.com/theatre_info/index.asp

A happy belated Birthday to your G-mother. Treasure all the time with her you can.

My Grandma is only 101. Some of my favorie memories are Thanksgiving at her house with my Mom, Grandma and her Mom all cooking in the kitchen. I can still smell it!
