Larry founded the Cottonwood Mansion Preservation Foundation in 1989.
This room is a memorial to the Sitter family, thanks to a $10,000 donation by Craig R. Sitter, C.A. of Hagersville, Ontario. It was nicknamed "The Music Room" right away because of the harp carved into the arch over the bay window. The drapes are the originals from 1903 returned by Helen Smiley Smith.
The room features a centre table, which is an inlaid Victorian "games table" donated by Toni Van Milligen, an 1872 pump organ and one of Cottonwood's two fireplaces.
