I’ve been there twice I think. Took a lot of pictures. I have a flickr.com account, I should actually use it.

"...relocated the bodies to cemeteries in Colma and elsewhere for space reasons. Obviously they missed one...."

I had a great SF history teacher when I went to CSM, I think his name is spelled Svanevik. Flaming homo but a good guy, never put his hand down my pants.

He said flat out that many dead bodies weren't "missed" per se but were left ON PURPOSE by unscrupulous companies contracted to move the bodies.

Michael Svanevik was my history teacher too!

Fun Fact: He used to have hot tub parties with his male students until he was told to stop doing that.

I studied in his classes at Skyline College back around 1971 (shows my age as well as his but he was older). He taught in the San Mateo County region campuses, I guess Skyline, CSM and maybe Canada campus. He was quite the expert back then on western USA and Mexican history, especially California. Through the decades I've seen his name pop up as an expert and go-to guy. His lectures back then were fantastic and he explored history theories I hadn't heard elsewhere. I sometimes had discussions with him while we walked on the campus. Never showed me any parties, though. Great guy.
