Large Lottery Win For Local Woman

A 48-year-old Thunder Bay mother of two is a big lottery winner.

She admits it was hard to believe she had won adding, “I had three other people look at my ticket to confirm I won.”

The early childhood educator calls the win “life-changing” and plans on paying off her mortgage and installing a hot tub.

The winning ticket was purchased at Cressman’s North End Variety on Shuniah Street.
