Meet Robert Lent, who restored the 1924 Wurlitzer organ at Hotel 24 South in Staunton
by Monique Calello for The News Leader (Staunton, VA)
Robert Lent grew up accompanying his father to service the 1924 Wurlitzer organ that sits on the second floor above the lobby of Hotel 24 South on Market Street in Staunton.
Lent owns Musical Restorations, the company that restored the organ to its authentic original condition. After his father passed away three years ago, Lent continues to return every year to tune and service the organ.
“His upbringing was on this and mine as well,” said Lent. “I've been doing this for almost 40 years.”
