Robert Oldfield Obituary
Bob was a valued partner at Ivy Ventures, LLC, where he excelled in business development and client service and where he would "always be closing". His propensity to make personal connections extended beyond work. Few derived as much joy as Bob did spending time with family and friends. Forever "the life of the party," Bob loved planning and treating his family to memorable vacations. St. John and Hilton Head had a special place in his heart. He grew up sailing the Chesapeake, and though he lived in South Carolina, New Jersey, and Virginia, he was truly at home on the water. Bob touched countless lives. His smile was infectious. He was admired by many and respected by all. Most of all, his family was his greatest treasure - including Tag, the labradoodle, and the most recent additions of his grandchildren: Reese and Liam. He looked forward to the birth of his new grandson, Jack Robert Rudnick, in March.
Bob is preceded in death by his father Lieutenant Commander Charles B. Oldfield, III and survived by wife Denise; his children Lindsay (Sean), Avery, Natalie (Josh), and Robert Jr. "Bobby"; his grandchildren Liam and Reese; his mother Carroll; his brother Charles; and sister Carroll Lee.
A Funeral Mass will be held at 10:00 AM on Monday, October 21, 2019 at St. Michael's Catholic Church located at 4491 Springfield Rd, Glen Allen, VA 23060. Family will receive friends one hour prior to Mass.
In lieu of flowers, please send donations to St. Michael's Catholic Church.

Bobby and I grew up together, he was always the picture of health. We went to Larchmont Elementary School and he lived right around the corner from me. We were always great friends and it certainly was a pleasure to see him at the Larchmont Elementary School seventh grade reunion. Bobby will be missed by all who knew him. God bless him..!
