Joe Lindsoe Obituary

After spending much of his childhood in Norway, Joe returned to Arlington, Va. in 1939. He attended Washington-Lee High School, received his A.B. degree in Psychology from Lynchburg College in 1952. In 1955, he compleated his bachelor of Divinity and then Masters in Christian Education from Lexington Theological Seminary in Kentucky. In 1977, he returned to the Seminary and received a Doctor of Ministry degree.

Joe served churches in Richmond, Arlington, Rocky Mount, Roanoke and Adelaide, Australia. He served as interim minister for many churches during his "retirement years". Active in many civic organisations and an avid tennis player, Joe was instrumental in starting the Franklin County Recreation Department.

He was preceded in death by his wife, Dulcie Rosetta Simpson Lindsoe; son, Eric Lindsoe; and wife, Betty Kiester Lindsoe. He is survived by his daughter, Dulcie Lindsoe-Johansen (Mark); stepdaughter, Resa Roseberry Payne (Gary), Greg Roseberry (Vickie); grandchildren, Elizabeth Stinnett (Brandon), Sharon Roseberry, and Benjamin Johansen; and great-grandaughter, Brooklyn Stinnett.

A "Celebration of Life" service will be held at Timberlake Christian Church, Lynchburg, Va. May 6, 2023, at 2 p.m.

I am so sorry to hear that Rev Dr. Joe T. Lindsoe has passed away. He was my minister from childhood to graduation. He was my minister, he was my spiritual advisor, he was my coach and he was my friend. My life was richly blessed by having him in it. I will forever be grateful for all our meetings and conversations. He was simply the best! My thoughts and prayers are with Dulcie Jo and the family. May God bless you all. Rest in Peace Joe you have earned it. You were a good and faithful servant to your Lord and Savior. You have earned your Heavenly Home .

Meet Joe playing Pickleball in Lynchburg. He was such a joy! Always positive and uplifting! I read his wonderful book, Found but not Lost. What an amazing life. I will treasure my moments of friendship with him forever. Prayers for your family.

Thankful that I knew Joe if only for a short time. He was a kind, caring friend to my mom when she needed it most, always bright and smiling. Hope his family may find comfort knowing Joe lives on in Heaven.

I met Joe while playing Pickleball at Hyland Heights Baptist Church in Rustburg, VA. He was quite a good player but more than that, he was a friend that was a joy to be around. God Bless Your Family; he made it easy to Love Him
