the club for Milburn, as well as a memorable
friendship that lasted until Poulos died in

me," Milburn said.

Cape Fear raised $70,000 last year through
the pancake breakfast and an annual golf
tournament, making donations to a variety

"When I do something for someone it
gives me great joy," he said. "I feel good that
I've accomplished something. I have to give
back; I feel like it's my duty."
While he said he appreciates being one of
the recipients of this year's Impact Awards,
he said his parents taught him never to draw
attention to himself.
"I'm honored and humbled," he said. "But
I don't consider myself anybody special. I'm
just a citizen of Fayetteville who wants to
help others.
"I'm really happy but humbled at the same
time," he said. "I don't feel like I really deserve
an award."
