Grand
Piano
Dedicated on September 29, 1989, our grand piano was originally owned by University of Wisconsin-La Crosse English professor, Jay Norris, who was tragically killed while walking. St. Paul's former Choir Director and Organist, Mary Larson, learned of this accident and the fact that this beautiful instrument was available. She planned and organized the sale of piano keys in order to be able to purchase the piano and give it a home in our music program. The piano is used regularly in our church services today.
