A battered cardboard sign sitting on the corner of Third and Orange reads:

THE SANDMAN HAS MOVED TO TEXAS

He gave one last interview before he left, he was short on words. “I am going to miss Coronado and the people who treated me nice, and maybe one day I will come back to visit.”

“What will you do in Texas?” I asked.

He thought for a moment and through a toothless grin he said, “I will become The Texas Sandman!”

Goodbye Albert and a fond farewell.

Thank you for leaving us all so many fabulous images of you art. They will always be remembered.
