Evans Funeral Home
Richard A. Evans opened the Evans Funeral Home in 1939, a family business dedicated to providing caring assistance to Central Ohio families during their time of need. The funeral home was founded on the belief that personalized service from your funeral director made the necessary arrangements of planning a funeral less difficult.

Today, Richard R. Evans, his daughter Melanie Evans and son-in-law Dwight Secrest continue with this commitment to serving the needs of the family. The many details of arranging a funeral can be overwhelming. So, the Evans family can handle the entire process for you, from pre-arrangements to supervising the funeral service.
Services
Staff members of Evans Funeral Home are caring and experienced professionals who understand that each family is unique and has personal requests and traditions. These requests and traditions are of utmost importance to our staff of licensed funeral directors. Dwight joined the Evans Funeral Home in 2002.
Evans Funeral Home offers comforting, quiet surroundings for families to gather at the time of the funeral or memorial service. Evans Funeral Home is a full service facility offering adult and children funeral and burial services, cremations, anatomical donation and state to state shipping. Evans Funeral Home offers pet cremation and pet urns.
Most of us plan ahead in life. We plan for our wedding, our children's education, family vacations, and other significant expected life events. We also plan for the unexpected events of life by purchasing home, auto and medical insurance. Understanding the benefits of pre-planning has prompted many to take the step to plan their own arrangements.
Evans Funeral Home offers a Pre-Need Plan that does not require pre-payment, however, offers an insurance or trust option to cover all or part of the funeral expense. The Pre-Need Plan offers the advantages of paying for tomorrow's funeral service at today's prices. This can provide great comfort to those who are concerned that, as costs increase, they will not be able to afford the service they desire.
Most of us are not prepared to plan and carry out a funeral ceremony for someone we love. And so much of the information available on this critically important subject fails to focus on what is most important: having a personalized, meaningful funeral that helps families and friends begin the healing process of mourning after the death of someone we love.

I am so happy that i chose Evans Funeral home. Dwight and Allison by far some of the kindest most sweet people we have ever met. Dwight made such a delightful impact on our mother through this hard time. She says he’s an Angel sent from above to help everyone to whom have to go through the loss of a loved one and she felt that he genuinely cared about her pain and sadness. As well as for myself i felt so warm and consoled by them. I am so GRATEFUL for everything they have done for us really. You guys are amazing ❤️ Thank you

I was recently here for the homegoing services of my niece. To say the least I’m am VERY disappointed in the service provided. Staff was very rude and unsympathetic. They did not greet my family with compassion nor did they ever at any point in dealing with them express their condolences for my loved one. Im not sure why but there was a dog barking and roaming the premises which I honestly believe may not even be legal. At the time of the service they had to be reminded to play the dvd. We also had to ask for tissues for grieving family and friends because there wasn’t any available.

They forgot to put cosmetics on my father. I had to request and did it myself. Inexcusable for a casket viewing.

Great friendly family owned funeral home. I have been there far more times then most and they always make you feel right at home and they make you feel like they truly care and feel compassion for your family.

There are too few words I can say to thank Evans Funeral Home. My family has used Evans Funeral Home and Memorial Gardens in Columbus, Ohio for decades. My grandmother, aunt, and now mother were all cared for by this family-run business. They were sensitive about the cost and offered me ways to cut the costs and expenses of my mother's service and burial. As an only child, it all fell to me to take care of these arrangements when my mother died from cancer (PSA - stop smoking, or better yet, do not start). Because Evans had taken care of my aunt and grandmother, the decision was very simple. The

Unfortunately I have been here too many times recently. Clean peaceful environment and staff is helpful but remain in the background to allow families to grieve unless needed.

An employee communicated with me over the phone regarding a service and was beyond rude. She berated me verbally and was completely unprofessional. Not what one might expect from anyone, certainly not a funeral home.
