Steve:

Keep in mind that Snape' body wasn't the only body lying around. There were many many people killed on both sides, and one assumes, they were all gathered up and give a proper burial. 

In most case, they, the bodies, were probably turned over to their families for internment in what ever tradition was consistent with their beliefs.

Snape didn't have family to my knowledge, but that does not mean they just threw him in a ditch somewhere. It seems perfectly reasonably that is body was dealt with properly.
