Marguerite Turgeon and Roger Delarosbil have 250,000 reasons to smile
Roger Delarosbil, 72, and his friend Marguerite Turgeon, a childcare worker, 57, purchased their ticket at J&T Enterprises in Sudbury.

Turgeon is now planning on retiring and investing her winnings.

"I got the numbers from the newspaper, and then I ran to my neighbour's house to have them check the ticket," says Turgeon.

"And then I went to the store to have it validated. It was so exciting."
