In 1951, he was an early recipient of the prestigious Terrebonne Press Award, now known as the Most Useful Citizen Award. He was a former member and
 past president of the Houma Rotary Club. As an organizer of the Houma-Terrebonne Carnival Club, he served for many years in a leading capacity. 
A Knight of Columbus, he served as Grand Knight of the local Council 1317 in 1938 and 1940, and was a member and faithful navigator of the Fourth Degree Knights of Columbus Assembly. He served as a longtime trustee of St. Francis de Sales Catholic Church, of which he was a lifetime member. 
Active during World War II, Caillouet served on several boards and panels that controlled allocation of scarce and critical essential commodities. His business background in ice, cold storage, seafood and oilfield activities made him conversant with some of the community's most important industries. 
He contributed much as head of various promotional study undertakings and committees. 
He served as role model for many through his personal faith and dedication to God, his love of his community and country, his unwavering commitment to honesty and fair play for all, and his personal discipline and character. His devotion and longtime service to family - not only to his immediate family, but also to the members and descendants of the two generations preceding his - will not be soon forgotten. He will stand before God having been "longed-lived upon the earth," as promised to those who honor their fathers and mothers.
 May he join them now for all eternity in heaven.
