Robert and Gena Kenny of Wainfleet are marking a milestone after winning $1 million in the LOTTO 6/49 Gold Ball Draw on August 16, 2025.
The couple, married for 27 years, have long been faithful lottery players, always choosing numbers that hold personal meaning.
Robert discovered their big win after checking the ticket on his way home from work, but when he called Gena with the news, she thought he was teasing.
Once the reality set in, they happily shared the life-changing news with their parents. Now, the Kennys plan to pay down bills, prepare for early retirement, and fully embrace the joys ahead.
The winning ticket was sold at Petro-Canada on Niagara Street in Welland.
