A mother and son wins $500,000 recently just a week apart
A North Carolina family is celebrating two lottery wins in the span of a month, WITN reports. Randy Williams, 48, of Greenville, said he woke up in the early morning hours of June 15 and decided to check his Cash 5 lottery numbers from the night before.
He found out he had a $518,774 jackpot waiting for him at lottery headquarters. Im going to buy my mom a house, Randy Williams said at the time. Shes very happy.
His mother, Peggy Williams, went with him to the Raleigh headquarters to claim the prize, which netted Randy Williams $369,627 after required state and federal tax withholdings.
Fast forward to Tuesday morning, when Randy Williams accompanied his mother to claim her own lottery winnings, less then a month after claiming his prize.
Peggy Williams, also of Greenville, won $500,000 on a Double Diamond Cashword scratch-off ticket, according to lottery officials. She took home $356,253 after required state and federal tax withholdings.
