It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Olivia Enriquez Whitaker on Nov 5, 2025. Olivia was such a wonderful, God-sent woman who was cherished by many. She worked 37 years at a popular local food chain in Albuquerque, New Mexico, Barleas Coffee House, where she touched the hearts of many. She was a great wife, a wonderful mother to three girls, an outstanding grandmother to nine grandchildren, and three great-grandchildren.

In the past few years, Olivia has been a fighter, battling many types of cancer. She was recently diagnosed with esophageal cancer, which came extremely aggressively and unfortunately took her life away. Olivia was such a wonderful soul; she cared about everything and everyone. Her house was open to anyone who needed to talk. She was a great listener and never judged anyone. She loved God and her family.

On behalf of the family, we greatly appreciate any help for the final financial closing to make sure dear Olivia is laid to rest with no type of financial burden. Thanks so much for your time and God bless.
