Enrique Xavier Barrientos “PeeWee” was born on March 16, 1980 and passed away on September 12, 2021 in Houston, TX. He was an amazing father, and a beloved husband. Let me tell you, as a friend- he was a friend like no other. Truly, words cannot describe this man but we’re going to try. 

Enrique was loved and cherished beyond measure even though his sense of humor was sometimes annoying. Really. Now, when I say that he would’ve given you the shirt off his back, he would have – and then he’d hand you a beer … BUT NOT THE ONE IN HIS HAND. If you knew him, you were family. If you knew of him, then you know the love we have for him.

To Nadine, he was her beloved husband and friend. To his children, a father that loved them unconditionally. To friends and family, he was a power house of energy and great companionship. He loved his family and lived life to the fullest daily. We’ll all miss him and parties will never be the same without him. So, people, drink a cold one for him and celebrate his life. Remember all the crazy things he’s said and done. Laugh without reserve.

He is survived by his wife, Nadine Arauz; Children, Mariah Isabel Barrientos, Enrique Xavier Barrientos II, and Angel Hernandez; And many family members and friends who were like family.

Enrique Xavier Barrientos “PeeWee” nació el 16 de marzo de 1980 y falleció el 12 de Septiembre de 2021 en Houston, TX.  Fue un padre asombroso y un esposo amado.  Déjame decirte, como amigo, era un amigo como ningún otro.  La verdad es que ni las palabras  pueden describir a este hombre, pero vamos a intentarlo.

 Enrique era amado y querido más allá de toda medida, aunque su sentido del humor a veces era fastidioso.  En realidad.  Ahora, cuando digo que te hubiera dado la camisa de su espalda, lo habría hecho … y luego te habría dado una cerveza … PERO NO LA QUE TENIA EN SU MANO.  Si lo conocías, eras de la familia.  Si supiera de él, entonces sabrá el amor que le tenemos.

 Para Nadine, él era su amado esposo y amigo.  Para sus hijos, un padre que los amaba incondicionalmente.  Para amigos y familiares, era una fuente de energía y un gran compañerismo.  Amaba a su familia y vivía la vida al máximo todos los días.  Todos lo extrañaremos y las fiestas nunca serán las mismas sin él.  Entonces, gente, beba uno frío para él y celebre su vida.  Recuerda todas las locuras que ha dicho y hecho.  Ríase sin reservas.

 Le sobreviven su esposa, Nadine Arauz;  Niños, Maríah Isabel Barrientos, Enrique Xavier Barrientos II y Ángel Hernández;  Y muchos familiares y amigos que eran como familia.
