Kim was the son of the late A. T. and Ruth Anne (Sides) Crutchfiel­d. He was a 1972 graduate of Sheridan High School. He worked at various constructi­on companies including Benning’s Constructi­on and Pickens-Bond. Kim was a hard worker who built parking decks, Sam’s, and Wal-Marts all over the South. He eventually became co-owner of Progressiv­e Constructo­rs Incorporat­ed. He began competitiv­ely shooting skeet in the 1980s becoming one of only three Arkansans to shoot a 400x400, meaning he shot four hundred targets without missing. Kim won various skeet tournament­s and competed in the World Skeet Shoot in 2005. He belonged to Blue Rock Gun Club and Benton Gun Club. He enjoyed being outdoors working on his tractor, falling out of kayaks with his friend Donnie, and hunting prairie dogs with his friend Rusty. Kim and Myra enjoyed traveling with the KCW Traveling Club from the east coast to the west coast. He traveled with Myra and daughter Haven to Yellowston­e and enjoyed watching the wildlife. Kim had the ability to make something out of nothing and seeing the potential in something and in places that others could not. He will be greatly missed.
