Meet Our Team

Brian is a 4th generation family member involved in the business. He attended St. Teresa of Avila grade school and North Hills High School. Prior to becoming involved, Brian attended John Carrol University where he obtained a bachelor’s degree in finance and worked in the Risk Management Casualty Department of Marsh, Inc. Brian graduated Cum Laude from the Pittsburgh Institute of Mortuary Science in January 2007 and was inducted into Mu Sigma Alpha, the National Honors Society of Funeral Service. Brian became a licensed funeral director in May 2008. Brian is an active member of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Parish in North Hills.

Born and raised in the North Hills, Mark attended St. Athanasius and St. Teresa of Avila grade schools, followed by high school at North Catholic and Sewickley Academy. He returned to Pittsburgh after receiving his BA from John Carroll University in Ohio. He then graduated from Pittsburgh Institute of Mortuary Science, and joined the family owned business. Mark and his wife Maririta have been married for forty-one years and have two children. His son Brian joined the business in 2006 representing the fourth generation. In addition to managing the funeral homes, Mark has stayed active in his community. He served on the North Hills School Board for two years, and was the District Justice of Ross and West View for over 25 years. Currently, he serves as chairman of the Ross West View EMS and lectors at his church. He continues to be a familiar face across North Hills.

Jonathan joined the Devlin Funeral Home team in October 2016 and serves as Supervisor and Licensed Funeral Director. Throughout his career, Jonathan has centered his work on relationships — believing a funeral director should be more than a professional in a suit, but a trusted and familiar presence within the community. His compassion for families, careful attention to detail, and respectful presentation have helped him become a recognizable and comforting face throughout the community.

He is actively engaged in local organizations including the Butler County Chamber of Commerce, Butler County Young Professionals, the Cranberry Township Rotary Club, and the Trocars Motorcycle Association. Jonathan also serves as Chair of the Pittsburgh Institute of Mortuary Science Independent Advisory Committee, supporting the profession through education and high standards.

Jonathan and his wife, Marissa, live in Cranberry Township with their three sons, Lorenzo, Gianni, and Vito, and are parishioners at St. Kilian Parish. Outside the funeral home, he is often found coaching youth basketball through Cranberry Township Parks & Recreation, attending local events, boating with his family, or in the gym — staying active and present in the same community he serves each day.

Kelsey just recently joined the Devlin team. She previously worked in West Virginia while finishing up school online at the Pittsburgh Institute of Mortuary Science. She studied business at West Virginia University. Kelsey and her husband Austin reside in Gibsonia with their pup Lacie.

In January 2021, Tho­mas Bede Devlin took the same jour­ney that he’d lov­ingly prepared for so many other peo­ple over the past 70-plus years. The World War II vet­eran and long­time op­er­a­tor of Devlin Funeral Home Inc. in Ross and Cran­berry was the fu­neral di­rec­tor of choice for gen­er­a­tions of fam­i­lies from the North Side, the North Hills and be­yond. In a busi­ness driven largely by word of mouth, Mr. Devlin took no short­cuts or chances when it came to pre­serv­ing his ster­ling rep­u­ta­tion — in­clud­ing in his ap­pear­ance. From 1960 to 1970, Mr. Devlin served as a justice of the peace in Ross and he was an ac­tive mem­ber of the St. Teresa of Avila Church, where he was a mem­ber of the church coun­cil and the St. Vin­cent de Paul So­ci­ety.
