Hello my name is Samantha. Mark Albert is a dear friend of mine. Mark owns and operates The Cat Shack, our local ice cream shop here in our little Victorian town of Ferndale, CA. Our community is small and interwoven, neighbors try their best to help each other.

Mark has recently undergone an emergency medical procedure which thankfully has saved his life. If it were not for fast acting doctors, nurses, fire department personnel and the caring people of Ferndale, we would have lost him.

Mark has been an outstanding community member, business owner and friend. Mark has shown time and time again what a loving heart he has and what a special person he is to our community.

Please help us help Mark so he doesn’t have more stresses while he tries to heal.
