Loved doing craft shows with Shirley for so many years. Thanks for all the times I got to stop and visit on my way through, it was great having close family to stay with. Your house was always a refuge for anyone between homes and jobs or anyone needing a place to stay while working in the area. Always willing to help out friends and family in need. I will miss her

RIP Shirley
Cheerleader and Prom Queen Class of 1966, Morro Bay High School.
I remember you as being a very beautiful nice person whom everyone liked and you most certainly were one of the original 1960's “Surfer Girl's” on the Central Coast of California.
Prayers and condolences to your husband, family and friends…
Also, I'd like to say hi to your brother Richard. Stay strong bro…

My sincere sympathy to the Rappe family. I had lost touch with Shirley for many years..so it is with true sadness to reconnect this way. Shirley and I were partners in our "little hole in the wall" store ..The Hang Up (In SLO).... She was always amazing...always a smile on her face and a great Bathing suit designer and maker! May the bright memories of her carry your family forward. With deepest sympathy.
