Hollie Baum

Hollie
​     For most of us, December is the time to get ready for the biggest celebration of the year.
However, for Hollie Baum, December of 2024 proved to be extremely more challenging
than finishing last minute shopping. That’s when medical authorities notified her that
she was diagnosed with ovarian cancer that had also moved to her liver and diaphragm.
That shocking news deters the heartiest of souls. But Hollie, a mother of seven adult
children and grandmother of two, tackled the news head on.
     “Of course, the cancer has slowed me down somewhat,” Hollie says. “We have not been
able to do all our normal family activities.”
     She adds, “This experience with cancer has taught me that life is precious and to cherish
it,” Hollie says. “It taught me how amazing people are – even more than I already knew.”
     For the past 25 years, Hollie has been serving as a dental assistant at Rosewood dental.
     She is the hygiene team leader and marketing director for Rosewood.
     She gains deep joy in watching her grandchildren play and spending time with her
family. Holly enjoys several hobbies, including crafts, music, movies, sports, and
watching professional sports.
     Hollie has learned that she can do difficult things.
​“Today is a good day to have a good day.”
