Kenneth Douglas Craine

Kenneth Douglas (Doug) Craine, 58, of Blytheville passed away at his home on October 23, 2024.  He was born on September 26, 1966, in Blytheville AR to Jerry Ray Craine and Donna J. Wardlaw Craine.  He was a graduate of Blytheville High School.  
His friends and family called him “Doug.”  He was a Master Machinist and co-owner of Unitech Tool.  He was an avid Arkansas Razorback fan and he loved duck hunting.  Doug also liked coaching his daughters fast pitch softball teams.  He enjoyed going to Norfork Lake for fishing, boating, skiing, and spending quality time with friends and family.  He liked to cook – one of his daughters said, “he made the best ham and beans!”  He was a very successful businessman, but more importantly he was a very successful family man.  He was a great son, a great husband, a great father, a great grandfather, and a great friend.  One of his best friends said, “if he was a friend of yours…you had a friend for life!”  
Doug is survived by the love of his life, Rachael Jewell Craine, of the home; four children:  Darien Craine, of Branson MO, Haylee Cluck, Kayla Cluck, and Wyatt Craine, all of Blytheville AR; four grandchildren:  Rosalynn Glasscock, Jaxon Buchanan, Harmony Machado, and Wrenlee Buchanan; his parents, Jerry and Donna Craine, of Blytheville AR; two sisters:  Karen Larrow, of Fayetteville AR and Kendra McKuin, of Blytheville AR; and several best friends:  Jason and Heather Cloud, of Blytheville AR, Joe Arriola, of Blytheville AR, Gerad David, of Jonesboro AR, Jeff Boyd, of Oxford MS, and Jacob Britt, of Blytheville AR; and a host of friends and family that will miss him dearly.
Funeral services will be held Friday, October, 25, 2024, at 11:00 AM in Carney Funeral Home Chapel with Bro. Jacob Britt officiating.  Visitation will be held from 10:00 AM until service begins.  Condolences may be offered at carneyfuneralhome.com.
