Delta's Jolene Keith is the latest local lottery winner.

Delta’s Jolene Keith just moved into a new home with her husband, and will be able to pay off her mortgage a whole lot quicker after she matched five numbers to win Daily Grand’s secondary prize in the April 20, 2020 draw.

“I couldn’t believe it right away,” said Keith, who opted to take the lump sum prize of $500,000 over $25,000 a year for life. I had to put my phone down for a few minutes because I was shaking for a few minutes and it didn’t seem real.”

Keith was working from home when she had discovered she was a big winner.

“I was working early on Tuesday morning,” said Keith. “My husband texted me saying he had won $10 on his tickets, so I checked mine. When I found out I won Daily Grand, I took a screenshot of the win and sent it to him and said ‘I think I have you beat’.”

Keith bought her winning ticket through PlayNow.com’s lottery subscription, and has been buying her lottery tickets online for the last four years.

“I find buying online so much more convenient. It guarantees that I’ll never lose my ticket or the dog won’t eat them,” said Keith. “Before, my husband and I were bad at checking our lottery tickets when we went out to buy them.”
