From their extensive service with local nonprofit organizations to international mission trips, Wes and Lucy have made their mark individually and as a couple. Wes, the founder and senior partner of Cape Fear Center for Digestive Diseases, and Lucy will be recognized for decades of service and dedication as recipients of CityView's annual Power of Giving Community Impact Awards presented by PWC. eirs is one of three awards to be presented on Nov. 16. Sandy Ammons, executive director of the Fayetteville Technical Community College Foundation, nominated the Joneses, saying she could not think of anyone more deserving. "When I think about community impact, I think about Lucy and Wes, who do so much for this community quietly, humbly and never needing recognition or attention," says Ammons. "ey serve this community through their deep Christian faith." "We go to church together, we socialize together and we've served on boards together. ey make everything they touch better. ey are so grateful for what they have been given in this life and in this community, they give generously back," Ammons says. Wes and Lucy look back over their decades in Fayetteville and still laugh at the beginning of their love story.
