Olyvia Christine Fraker, 27, of Ten Mile, Tennessee, passed away unexpectedly at her home on October 10, 2021. Born on November 22, 1993 in Knoxville, Tennessee; she was the second daughter of Karen Forrest Fraker and Michael Lee Fraker.
Olyvia was a talented artist, exceptional entertainer, and outdoors enthusiast. She was an expert fisherwoman, and never failed to reel in the big catch. Extremely intelligent, she spent a lot of time in books and documentaries regarding historical events. She could answer any question regarding American History without hesitation. She was a deep lover of animals and rescued many along the way. Strong minded and independent, she never followed any social norm and was proud to be herself. Her family admired her ability to create her own space and world.
