Carlisle, born June 13, 1947, was a native of Union, SC. A graduate of Union High School, she completed her education at the University of South Carolina. She was formerly married to Richard Pierson Simon, Sr. Her work over the ensuing decades encompassed a wide range of activities and volunteer efforts. She worked as an Interior Designer, technical writer for Data Southern Corporation, and engaged in the home education of two of her of three sons.

She was a Lady of the Kingdom of Raknar and the Scottish Ladies United Together Society. She also was active in her parishes, serving in youth ministry and on several vestries including St. Mark’s Episcopal Church in Dayton, OH and Holy Cross Anglican Church in Farragut, TN. Until the time of her death, she faithfully served in her current parish of Apostles’ Anglican Church, Knoxville, TN. Carlisle held membership in the Daughters of the American Revolution, Halifax Resolves Chapter, and the National Society of the Colonial Dames of America.


Carlisle was preceded in death by her father Charles Dreier, Jr., mother Lillian Perrin Dreier, sister Henrietta Perrin Abell Wilkinson, and grandmother Henrietta Wade Perrin. She is survived by her sons Richard Pierson Simon, Jr., McCall Perrin Simon, Camden McCall Simon, daughters-in-law Kayla Byerley Simon and Caleigh Melissa Simon, brother Charles Perrin Dreier III, and several nieces and cousins.
