William Steve Lail, a.k.a. The Rainbow Kid, 53, of Longview, North Carolina died Feb. 17th, 1998.
Steve "The Rainbow Kid" Lail died after a bout with infection and pneumonia, ending his twenty year existence as a paraplegic. In 1978, then 33, Steve worked as a high school Journalism teacher in Virginia. At a party one evening while attempting to break up a fight, he toppled down a flight of stairs. When he woke up, he was paralyzed from the chest down. Unable to continue his career, he spent the next eighteen years back home near Hickory, NC with his parents.
He was a journalist, a teacher, and writer. Among his books were "Six Flags Over P.T.L." and "More Fun With Jim & Tammy" both of which played a part in the downfall of the Baker's empire of theft and deception.
