San Bernardino County sheriff’s investigators conducted a second search of the Lamb Funeral Home of Pasadena and the residence of Lawrence Lamb, 76, during which they seized documents that sheriff’s spokesman Jim Bryant said may connect the undertaker with an unlicensed crematory in Hesperia and with the Coastal Eye & Tissue Bank of Santa Fe Springs. Lamb’s grandson, David Sconce, 31, operator of the tissue bank, and Lamb’s son-in-law, Jerry Sconce, 54, operator of the Lamb Funeral Home, were arrested last month on suspicion of stealing gold from corpses. No charges have been filed.
