Haldimand County has a new multi-millionaire, he is the winner of the ‘Catch the Ace Lottery’, that went on for a number of weeks in Hagersville.
Richard Marshall, a retired commercial fisherman and his wife Lorna were the lucky winners.
They live above their bait shop on a remote property in Nanticoke, and last week Richard’s ticket won just over two-million-dollars with ‘Catch the Ace’.
Richard and Lorna’s friend Bob waited in line and bought their ticket, and then they got a call last Thursday from that same friend.
“He called and said you won, and I said ****, you’re lying, and he said no I’m not” said Lorna.
