History
The Claybar Story
Founded 1946The Claybar story began in 1946 when Ambrose Claybar converted a residence in Orange into a funeral home. When World War II ended, Lannie Claybar returned from service to join his brother and committed himself to serving Southeast Texas families. Lannie and his wife, Marjorie Brown, built the business into the region's leading funeral service provider.
