Doyle Crownover, 80, of North Little Rock died Friday, November 18, 2005, at Lakewood Nursing and Rehabilitation Center.

He was born January 9, 1925, at the home of his parents, John Lester and Maggie Fullerton Crownover, on Harmony Mountain near Bee Branch in Van Buren County. He graduated from high school at Clinton in 1943. He worked in a munitions plant at Jacksonville during the waring days of World War II.

He completed enough college courses at Arkansas State Teachers College (now the University of Central Arkansas) to receive a teaching certificate and in 1947 began a 39- year career as an educator. He eventually completed bachelor’s, master’s and specialist degrees. He taught at Concord, Wilburn and Bee Branch Southside, then served as high school principal and superintendent at the Greenbrier School District.

In 1966, he became an administrator of the North Little Rock School District, and he hired hundreds of teachers over the next twenty years. He retired in 1986.

He was a member of Church of Christ.
