Holly Roseanne Balcom Fawcett January 12, 1956 – November 13, 2020 Fort Worth, TX. A beautiful, magical, and treasured wife, mother, daughter, sister and friend left this world too soon after a fierce battle with cancer. Holly was born January 12th, 1956 in Austin, Texas, to Barrie Thomas Balcom and Rebecca E. Thomas Balcom. Holly lived her life in multi-color and used beautiful flowers, delicious food, precious gifts, and amazing art to surround everyone in her life with the joy that it brought. Holly was raised in the TCU area of Ft. Worth and was a graduate of Paschal High School. With a fine eye for detail, Holly was a fixture at Nieman Marcus during the 1980’s and became a respected floral and holiday designer in Ft. Worth throughout the 1990’s. Holly spent her later years in the Estate sale business, helping manage, organize, sell, and display the treasures of others in local Fort Worth communities. She was a 25-year ring side seat holder at the Golden Gloves, a major participant in her local church of St. Stephen Presbyterian, and an avid supporter of the Arts.
She was preceded in death by her father, Barrie T. Balcom.
