  Mr. DeSAULNIER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the life and 
service of a longtime Antioch resident, Mrs. Tique Lee Caul.
  Tique majored in Business at Laney College. As a single mother, she 
would often take her children with her as she attended classes. She 
simultaneously worked a full-time job and was a Habitat for Humanity 
volunteer.
  Tique was a trailblazer and proud Antioch resident for 25 years and 
was a trailblazer. She was a woman who wore many hats. A dedicated Real 
Estate Agent for the past 18 years, Tique sat on multiple boards, and 
was passionately involved with several professional organizations 
including the National Association of Real Estate Brokers, Black Women 
Organized for Political Action, and a past member of Kiwanis, and Toast 
Masters.
  A stalwart in the community, Tique was a member of the Central 
Committee of the Democratic Party of Contra Costa County, and a 
committed volunteer for several elected officials. One of her most 
passionate volunteer roles was that of Leadership Coordinator (Coach) 
for Aiming High, Inc., where she enjoyed supporting others in their 
personal transformation and goal attainment. As the daughter of a Navy 
veteran, she also volunteered for the Veterans' Hospital.
  Tique was busy shining her light until the very end. She was a 
wonderful mother to her five daughters, (Ricklene, Bobbye, Roman, 
Miquel and Alexis) and son (Gerald Jr.), a brilliant wife (Gerald Sr.), 
a doting grandmother, loving aunt, sister, cousin and a faithful 
friend. She will be sincerely missed by everyone who knew her.
