“There are also beautiful moments in special times,” said BM Georg Willi aptly at the beginning of his sensitive speech for a special guest of honor in the Old Town Hall. Didi Constantini was awarded on Monday. Together with the mayor, the City Councilor for Sports, Elisabeth Mayr, also presented the city’s Sports Badge and Cross of Merit.
“Not only because of his athletic achievements, but also because of his human qualities, he is awarded the Cross of Merit, the highest honor in the city,” said Willi, paying tribute to the ex-Wacker Innsbruck professional and former team boss of the Austrian national soccer team.
The family and companions such as Peter Koncilia, Heinz Peischl, Andi Schiener, Andi Spielmann, Helmut Lutz and Wolfgang Montagnolli congratulated Constantini, who was happy about the award and enjoyed the coherent event despite his poor health. (wm)
