Paulette Fry
Paulette Fry was honored for her 40th anniversary of service as organist for the United Presbyterian Church, Cortland, New York, on September 25 during the morning worship service and a reception following.
In the afternoon, Fry led an organ and brass concert featuring Ralph Dudgeon performing on trumpet, piccolo trumpet, and corno da caccia. In the final piece on the program, the ten-member Church Street Brass group joined Dudgeon and Fry in Feel the Spirit, an arrangement by Fry of four African-American spirituals, performing from three separate balconies in the sanctuary.
Fry also serves as church treasurer and chair of United Church’s arts series, Sanctuary Seasonings.
