Globus, Hope

Hope Elaine Globus of Boynton Beach, Florida, formerly of Providence, Rhode Island, passed away peacefully on August 10, 2024 at her daughter Patti’s home in Barrington, RI surrounded by family. She was 94 years young. Hope shared 73 years of life and love with her beloved husband, Melvin Globus, who predeceased her ten months ago.

Hope was a talented, vibrant artist with a flair for design, fashion, style and color, which she expressed through painting and her antiques collection. It was unusual to catch her outside of her home not dressed to the nines and fully accessorized.

Hope began her career as an Assistant Handbag Buyer, had a sharp business mind, and a love for the stock market. Hope attended Parson’s School of Design and graduated from Bryant College. Hope’s home was her castle, she loved her Tivoli Lakes community who kept a watchful eye on her while she navigated life without her soulmate.

Hope was the adored daughter of Bessie and John Fierstein and beloved sister of Herbert Firestone, who predeceased her. She loved being visited in Florida by her loving family and making memories together. She is survived by her two daughters, Sherri Orloff of Swampscott, MA and Patti (Bud) Lackey of Barrington, RI. She was the cherished grandmother of Marc (Anne) Orloff, Jaime (Adam) Feeney, Brad (Ali) Lackey, and Evan (Meghan) Lackey. She was the proud great grandmother of Daniel, Jonathan, Mason, Samara, Eliza, Avery, Thomas, and Siobhan. Hope also leaves behind the extended Lackey family who had traveled to celebrate her early birthday this weekend, nieces, nephews, and cousins.

    We have known Hope since moving into Tivoli Lakes in Boynton Beach Fl 18 years ago. Imagine our surprise to learn that Hope and Mel were congregants of Rabbi Pickholtz (Attleboro MA), who was Arny’s father. Hope was as lovely as she was sweet and always looked beautiful. She will be missed, and we send our sincerest condolences to the family.
