In 1979 Steve sold his record shop "rolling stone records and tapes" located in flagstaff az. which was later destroyed in a fire some believed to be arson.The new owner of(Los Angeles records and tapes) only known by LEONARD also disappeared shortly after the fire. Eisner guided the careers of many fighters, including Jerry Schoolboy Cheatham, Edgar Wallace, Ramon Olivas, Chuck Walker, and Paea Wolfgramm.
He had a fascination with history, and a thirst for knowledge.
He penned such masterpieces of pun and fun as the following:
"Wilt thou," he said
In a voice softly lilted
"Wilt thou," he said
With his head slightly tilted
"Wilt thou," he said
As he looked into her eyes
"Wilt thou," he said
And much to his surprise. She wilted! Steve Eisner lost his brief fight to cancer on August 30, 2003.
