  Mr. AL GREEN of Texas. Madam Speaker, today I would like to honor the 
memory of Quintanna Wilson Hall Alliniece. Mrs. Alliniece lived a life 
dedicated to her strong faith and to the education of multiple 
generations of Houston students.
  Mrs. Alliniece was born in Brazoria County, Texas and moved to 
Houston to attend high school. She obtained a Bachelor of Arts degree 
in English from the Houston College for Negroes in 1942 and a Masters 
degree in Education from Texas Southern University.
  A leader in her community, Mrs. Alliniece taught English and 
Mathematics for over forty years in the Sweeny and Houston Independent 
School Districts. She held leadership roles in numerous organizations 
including the Houston League of Business and Professional Women, Inc., 
Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc., Interfaith Ministries Food Pantry, and 
the YWCA. Mrs. Alliniece was also a life-long member of the Greater 
Zion Missionary Baptist Church where she served as Mission II President 
for over 35 years.
  Finally, Madam Speaker, Quintanna Wilson Hall Alliniece will be 
missed dearly by her son and my close friend Anthony Hall Jr. He is a 
well-respected member of the Houston community and Chief Administrative 
Officer of the City of Houston. She will also be missed by her 
daughter-in law Carolyn, grandchildren, sisters and numerous nieces, 
nephews, cousins, and friends. She will be remembered in the City of 
Houston as a dedicated educator and valued community leader. May she 
rest in the peace she has richly earned.
