John Tindell has been called home after a lifetime of service to the Lord, many communities in Alaska and the Pacifi c Northwest and his family. He died peacefully at home, under hospice care, on Dec. 31, 2020, after a struggle with complications from a stroke. John was born on April 2, 1936, in Miami, Flor- ida, to John J. and Mary L (McLean) Tindell. His mother raised him in their neighborhood Allapattah Methodist Church, which led to his goal at age 12 of serving as a Methodist pas- tor, a path he followed for almost all of his adult life. John met Beryl Insinger while they were students at Florida Southern Col- lege in Lakeland, Florida. They were married in 1959, while John was fi nishing a master’s degree in divinity from Emory University, and following Beryl’s agree- ment to a life of adven- ture in Alaska and beyond. The two traveled the globe together extensively. Beryl died in 2018, after 60 years of marriage. In his deepest self he was an explorer, following mis- sion opportunities in Cuba, Appalachia, Scotland and over 35 years in Alaska. He was the founding pastor of the Sitka United Methodist Church, and the fi rst pastor of the then newly combined Methodist and Presbyte- rian Northern Light United Church in Juneau. He also led the east Anchorage and Anchorage First United Methodist churches. After his offi cial retire- ment in Alaska, John served four more churches, two in Idaho and two in Oregon. His fi nal assignment was 11 years as pastor of the Seaside Signal City of Seaside Rev. John Tindell Seaside United Methodist Church in Seaside. John is survived by his two children, Raymond and Cynthia (“Cindy”); grandson, Kevin; and sis- ter, Estelle Lima, of Miami, Florida. Raymond is a Portland attorney and graduate of the University of Miami and Southern Methodist Uni- versity Law School. Cindy is a graduate of Georgetown University, has master’s degrees from Columbia University and the Har- vard Business School, and is a vice president at Nex- tEra Energy in Palm Beach, Florida. In retirement years, John and Beryl enjoyed being a part of the life of their grandson, Kevin, a doctoral student at Arizona State University. A Zoom celebration of life and ministry is planned for Jan. 30 at 11 a.m. Please contact seasideunited- methodist@gmail.com for details.

She was born Bon- nie Jean Davis on Feb. 15, 1939, in Astoria. Beanie was given her nickname by her fi ve older brothers, and it stuck, and everyone knew her as Beanie. She was raised in War- renton, and lived there most of her life. She was raised by her parents, Ruby and Russell Davis, along with fi ve older brothers and one sister. Beanie attended Warren- ton schools, and graduated in 1957. She met and mar- ried her high school sweat- heart, Norman Johnsen, in 1957. He preceded her in death in 2018. They had been married 61 wonderful years. While Norman began his career as a commercial fi sherman, Beanie chose to stay home to raise their two daughters. Beanie was active with the girls’ lives in school, PTA, sports, piano lessons, 4-H and all of the activities they were involved in. She later worked for the War- renton School District and Costco. Beanie loved to cook, garden, sew, read and craft. Although she was not of Norwegian heritage, she loved to cook Norman’s favorite Scandinavian foods!
