Hi Keith,

As a Handbell Choir director, I can tell you that you are correct.

Ron,

With one of your descriptions I was struck this morning with an example
  of a way for me to remember whether to add or subtract mass
    to change the pitch of an object.

Handbells: more mass, lower pitch; less mass, higher pitch.

Trusting this is a valid deduction.

Sincerely,

Keith
