A big win is bringing excitement to Alvinston after local resident Nancy Shepley won $130,617 in a LOTTO 6/49 second prize draw on February 28th, 2026.
Nancy, who is retired, has been playing the lottery for more than 20 years. She said this is her first major win.
Nancy said her husband was making breakfast when she told him she had something to show him. At first, he asked if it could wait, but when she showed him the winning ticket, he was stunned. The family finished breakfast together, still in disbelief over the exciting news.
Nancy says she plans to use the money to pay some bills and buy a new oven.
The winning ticket was purchased at Heidi’s Your Independent Grocer in Petrolia.
