Robbie DeWayne Bennett, 38, of Sulphur, Oklahoma, tragically passed away on Jan. 6, 2025. Born on Dec. 3, 1986, in Ada, Oklahoma, to Ronald DeWayne Bennett and Trudy Jane (Lumpmouth) Bennett, Robbie lived a life full of love, passion and adventure. He was a proud member of the Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs in Oregon and was one-fourth Cheyenne and Arapaho Tribe from Oklahoma, honoring his rich cultural heritage throughout his life. Robbie graduated in 2003 from Madres High School in Oregon, where he excelled on the basketball court and created cherished memories playing games with his siblings and cousins. Over the years, he built a diverse career, beginning as a bellhop at Kah-Nee Ta Resort in Warm Springs, Oregon, working as an order filler at Walmart Distribution Center in Pauls Valley, Oklahoma, and later honing his skills as a machinist at Kerr Pump in Marietta, Oklahoma.
Robbie’s passions were as wide-ranging as his travels, which took him across the United States and to places like Mexico, Tijuana and the Bahamas. He loved building custom firearms, working on cars and playing disc golf. A self-proclaimed foodie, he enjoyed eating out and sharing meals with loved ones, including teaching his sister the art of making gravy—a memory she treasures deeply.
A devoted family man and friend, Robbie’s positive spirit and selfless nature left a profound impact on everyone he met. He was fiercely dedicated to his family, friends and community, often going out of his way to help anyone in need. He was a passionate advocate for a life free from drugs and always stood as a beacon of encouragement and support to others. In life, Robbie built not just things, but relationships, memories and legacies that will stand the test of time.
Robbie’s memory will forever be cherished by his parents, Ronald and Trudy (Lumpmouth) Bennett of Pauls Valley; brother, Wade Bennett of Pauls Valley; sister, Felicia Bennett of Pauls Valley; grandmother, Linda Williams of Byars; nephews, Delmar Whitefoot, Mitchell Whitefoot Jr. and Brayden Bennett; and a host of other family and friends.
