Several internet sites claim "1986" as his date of death, not 1979 as claimed here. I haven't read the book about them, so I don't know if that's where the 1979 claim comes from, but I note that it's a lot more specific (day and month), so I'll leave it in until further research. 216.64.147.98 (talk) 23:52, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I just checked the Social Security death index, which indicates Dana Lamb died June 1979 in Hillsboro, Sierra County, New Mexico. So the "1986" shown on other sites is incorrect.
