Music staff

More of us than are listed below actually play in church every week. Chime Master is a very musical company. One of the first questions we ask candidates for any position is 'what instrument do you play?'

In memorium

Wilma Hugus 1934-2020

Wilma Ruth (Ardrey) Hugus, 86, passed away from Wind River Rehab and Wellness in Riverton, WY to be with her Savior on December 1, 2020.

Wilma worked with us from the very beginning of Chime Master. Her inspirational playing imbued genuine soul into our carillons and bell ringing equipment. She began playing in the Presbyterian Church in her teens, then supported her husband Harold's ministry as a pastor of Methodist churches and as an independent evangelist. This photo shows Wilma composing her last gospel song, Quiet Glory, about the time she was no longer cognitively able to live at home. Her second to last, We Come To You, is on the piano.

Lord Jesus, Lord Jesus Christ

Our only hope, our Savior

We need You, we need You now

Without You we are empty and alone

We see our need, we sense our helpless state

We know our weakness and we fear our fate

without You

You never leave, You don't forsake us

Into Your shelter You will take us

By Your power You would remake us

You wait for us to turn, to come to You

And now with open hearts we come to You

We come to You - Wilma Hugus, 2015
