Mike Tarbell lives in Shinglehouse, PA with his wife of 42 years, Debra. They are blessed to have their 3 children, Danielle, Kaylin and Zachary and their 6 grandchildren Taige, Owen, Colden, Emma, Isabelle and Evelynne living close by, and they are the lights of their lives!
Mike has been a member of St. Theresa Parish in Shinglehouse since 1988. In his many years there, Mike has served on the Parish Council as a representative on the Finance Committee, and as President of the Council. He has also participated in the Choir, as well as being a Lector and Usher. Mike has been a CCD teacher at St. Theresa for the past 25 years.
Mike made Cursillo #250 in October of 2019, and Debra made her Cursillo in December of 2019. It was a life changing experience which has inspired Mike and Debra to do more for the movement.
Mike and his family enjoy traveling and vacationing with each other, and spending as much time together as possible, with the “Sunday Supper” a central part of family life. Mike was the youth basketball coach for the past 16 years in Shinglehouse, just recently retiring from that position. Mike also enjoys golfing with his son and sons-in-law, and going for walks with Debra and their two Dachshunds Frank and Mabel.
