May your beer be frosty and your proctologist be slender .

Congrats again .

Congratulations Chris, a fine and deserving recognition of all that you do, and everything that you bring to our AK family.

I would like to thank God, Mommy, my proctologist, my Collins Dictionary, my Oxford Dictionary, Google, my Acer computer, my Fritzbox router, my Norton Security System and last but not least Warsteiner Brewery (et al) making "HarmanKardon Member Of The Year 2016" possible.

A very special thanks goes to Ernie. You, sir, carrying out this event, did a great job, as every year!

I wish I could share this wonderful moment with Ronnie. I really wish that.

Christoph

I truly believe that Ronnie is smiling down on you and all of us, and nodding his head in approval. Chris carries on a wonderful AK tradition of welcoming and celebrating members. What better way to promote the AK spirit.

And for that, here is a selection cars for him to choose from to enjoy his favorite brew:

And it must be noted, Chris is our first AK Euro member so honored.

This picture is for you, folks. Pictures of myself are very rare. This one is the latest and has been taken in January on occasion of the 90th Birthday of my mother. On the left you see my brother, on the right my sister.

You look shorter than I thought you would be.
I also wanted to say that I bet I know someone that's smiling down on you from up above right now. Someone that's very proud of you for getting this honor. Ronnie.
