About Us

Focused on Your Needs
The Cooper Aeolian Organ

The antique organ that graces the chapel balcony at Morris Sutton Funeral Home was built by the Aeolian Music Company in 1924. Originally installed in Prohibition entrepreneur James Cooper’s Windsor mansion, it found a new home in 1946, when the Morris Funeral Home opened a grand new location and needed an organ.

The organ served well for decades before falling quiet in the late ‘90s. In 2011, it was restored by staff organist and curator Ron Dossenbach. Today, all 1,280 pipes are present and play, all console controls operate, as do the chimes and harp, and even the roll playing mechanism has been restored. We are proud that the organ’s warm, soothing sound can bring comfort during our funeral services.
