Eva Binfet, 96, of Cascade, IA, passed away Friday, Feb. 20, 2026, at Accura Healthcare in Cascade. She was born to Stanis and Clara (Glatt) Uhrich in Loyalton, near Roscoe, SD, on June 13, 1929. Eva Uhrich and Wendlin Binfet were married in Roscoe on October 18, 1948.

Eva grew up in central South Dakota on her parents' farm. A few years after she married Wendlin, the young family moved to the Black Hills where they raised their two children. She worked various jobs over the years until she retired in 1991. After her husband passed, she moved in 2005 to be near her daughter in Cascade.

She is survived by two children: Julie (Bob) Oeschger of Cascade, IA, and Michael (Patricia) Binfet of Marysville, OH; three grandchildren: Shantelle (Brad) Barhorst, Angelica (Mark Moreno) Binfet, and Isabella Binfet, all of OH; one great-grandchild, Lincoln Barhorst; and one sister, Jean (Don) Bertsch of Chandler, AZ.

Eva was preceded in death by her husband, Wendlin (on March 29, 2002) her parents, five siblings: Chris (Paul) Binfet, Wallie (Walter) Binfet, Rose (Frank) Piatz, Tom (Jean) Uhrich, Larry (Catherine) Uhrich, and many brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law.

According to Eva's wishes, there will be a private graveside service at Rose Hill Cemetery in Spearfish, SD, at a later date.

The family would like to extend their heartfelt thanks to all the staff at Accura Healthcare for their wonderful and compassionate care of Eva throughout her stay. Also, a special thanks to Above and Beyond Hospice Care for their comfort and support and Fr. Mark, Fr. Schueller, and Deacons from St. Thomas Aquinas Pastorate for their visits.
