"I am pleased to offer a letter of recommendation for Richard F. Hurley. He is an extraordinarily fine technician in the field of organ maintenance.  His expertise in dealing with all the complex facets of the mechanics of a pipe organ is unquestionable, and his skill as a tuner is of the highest quality.

There is an additional dimension inherent in Mr. Hurley's work because he is an accomplished organist as well.  As a result, he has the understanding and perspective of a performer and can be sympathetic to the many small things which are so important to the player.

Richard Hurley has been maintaining the Cathedral organ for a number of years now and has provided the best care that the instrument has enjoyed in the thirty years I have been Cathedral Organist.  His success in the field is due, in part, to his knowledge and talent, but also, in large measure, to his dedication to his craft, and to the special interest which he takes in any instrument which he services."
