84-year-old Widow, Wins £383 million In USA.

An 84-year-old widow, Gloria Mackenzie had every right to show off her numerous laughter and probably live more longer as she became the winner of a lottery worth £383 million.
Gloria Mackenzie who lives in a small shack was named America's biggest-ever lottery winner. She admitted she only bagged her astonishing jackpot because someone let her jump the queue at the shop where she bought the lucky ticket.
The grandma said in a statement, "While in line,another lottery player was kind enough to let me go ahead of than to purchase the winning ticket." "We are very grateful for this blessing." It was not known last night whether Gloria was planning to track down the stranger to hand over a share of the prize. Gloria described by neighbours as a "sweet little old lady," bought the winning ticket for £1.30 at the publix grocery shop in her hometown of Zephyrlulls,Florida, 30 miles north east of Tampa. She travelled to the state capital Tallahasse with her son and two lawyers yesterday to claim her price after her number came up in the draw on May 18. The world's largest jackpot was a £425 million won in USA in 2012. But that prize was split between 3 tickets.
