He never forgot where he came from, a role model for all generations. You simply had to admire him. I admired him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Hainer described the fact that Beckenbauer always had an open ear for his counterpart as a \u201cgift\u201d and added: \u201cThe fact that we took time for each other is his legacy.\u201d FC Bayern was fortunate to have experienced an \u201cimperial era\u201d. Hainer promised: \u201cIt is now up to us to live on this history.

He took everyone seriously and valued them,\u201d he reported from his own experience.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSuccess on the pitch is one thing, but success as a person is particularly impressive.\u201d Franz Beckenbauer&#8217;s light shone brightly and far beyond any shadows.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Uli Hoene\u00df: \u201cHe was generous without end\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>The speech by Honorary President Uli Hoene\u00df<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>FCB Honorary President Hoene\u00df followed on seamlessly from this. His words &#8211; memories of times together on the pitch, the class of the \u201cKaiser\u201d on the ball, and the special bond between the two &#8211; once again reflected the extraordinary character Beckenbauer possessed. \u201cHis ability to take care of others was one of his most important qualities. He was generous without end,\u201d Hoene\u00df reported, adding: \u201dIf he did anything, it was with meticulousness and diligence. His masterpiece was when he brought the 2006 World Cup to us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Emotionally, he said: \u201cDear Franz, I miss you very much.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He may have spoken from the soul of many.
