Hundreds gather to remember Newark Police Chief Steve Baum in Heath
Newark Advocate
HEATH - There was a mix of laughter and tears as over 200 gathered to remember Newark Police Chief Steve Baum, a man who many said was larger than life, on Tuesday.
Baum, 54, died last week after suffering a medical emergency at his home. He was hired by the Newark Division of Police in 1993, serving the department as patrol officer, detective, sergeant and captain, and then became safety director in 2016, before receiving the mayoral appointment to police chief last year.
At Heath Church of Christ, Pastor David Linn began the service by thanking God for words of comfort, and the huge footprint Baum left behind on his family, friends and community. He prayed for Baum s family and his law enforcement family as they grieve his loss.
