Gary Foster Evert November 2, 1968 – February 9, 2026

Gary Foster Evert, 57, passed away on February 9, 2026, in Rapid City, South Dakota.

Born on November 2, 1968, Gary was a respected leader and a man of great technical skill who balanced a successful career with a lifelong passion for speed and family.

As the CEO of T.R.E.A., Gary was a dedicated professional, yet he was most at home behind a wheel or a workbench. He was a fixture in the local racing community, competing in Street Stock cars at Black Hills Speedway and racing autocross at the Central States Fairgrounds. His precision extended to his hobbies of racing Radio Control cars and meticulously building model cars.

Above all, Gary was a devoted family man and a good friend to all, known for his reliability and readiness to help anyone in need.

Gary is survived by his wife, Kimberly Evert; his brother, Duane Evert; his sister, Nancy (Chris) Evert; his four children, Cindi Evert, Kassi (Kaen) Morton, Stephaine Evert, and Thomas Evert; and his two grandchildren, Matias and Azrael Parsons.

He was preceded in death by his parents, William “Will” and Elizabeth “Betty” Evert, and his grandparents, Thelma and Hillary March. At Gary’s request, cremation has taken place and no services are planned at this time. Friends and family are invited to sign the online guest register and leave written condolences at WestRiverfd.com.

Arrangements have been entrusted to Dean Moncur at West River Funeral Directors in Rapid City,
