It's a lottery 1 story unlike so many others, where chance was followed quickly by fate and grief gave way to an amazing discovery. That's Charlotte Peters, and that's a golden lottery ticket she almost threw away. Her husband had bought it a couple of months ago, but died of a heart attack that same day, never knowing the ticket was a big winner.
My husband had purchased it on November 1st and he had a heart attack on November 1st, and this was drawn 2 on December 2nd.
His wife didn't know it was a winner either and put the ticket aside during weeks of mourning until just recently.
I was on the verge 3 of throwing it out, and I was in the grocery store, and I asked to have it checked, and they told me I was a winner. I had no idea how much it was.
She now knows that ticket is worth $10 million. Donald Peters was a retired 4 factory worker and had been playing the lottery regularly for 20 years.
