He graduated from Central Private in 1972 and began working at Crown Zellerbach the same year, retiring after 41 years and many name changes to the mill. He was a man of integrity, responsibility, and resilience. He was steadfast in all aspects of his life.

He was most proud of his grandchildren and was the best Pawpaw Robert. He is survived by his father James Oudkirk, sister Kathy Withycombe, daughter LaTrelle Cart, grandchildren Joseph, Georgia, and Jack Cart, great-grandson Lee Cart adn his nieces and nephews. He is preceded in death by his mother Rosemary Oudkirk, sister Janet Newburn, brother Dale Oudkirk and son-in-law Joey Cart.
