Crane, who grew up in the north St. Louis suburb of Dellwood, Missouri, attended Lutheran High School North and graduated from there in 1972. He gave the school a donation of USD$1 million to improve their athletic facilities and enlarge the size of the campus from 40 acres to 67 in 2004.〔 The school named the James R. Crane Athletic Complex for his contribution.〔(Sports Facilities ). - Lutheran High School North.〕
Crane earned a degree in industrial safety from Central Missouri State University (now University of Central Missouri) in 1976, where he became a member of the fraternity, Tau Kappa Epsilon. He pitched for the Central Missouri Mules baseball team. Crane's father died between his freshman and sophomore years and he seriously thought about dropping out of college, but his coach Robert N. Tompkins drove to his home in north St. Louis and talked Crane into returning to school.
In 1998 Crane was the largest donor in a USD$1.2 million upgrade of the CMSU baseball stadium, which was then named James R. Crane Stadium.〔(James R. Crane Stadium/Robert N. Tompkins Field ). - University of Central Missouri.〕
