A Tecumseh letter carrier is celebrating after delivering a lottery win for his family.
Tony Covelli of Tecumseh won $72,957.60 in the March 1, 2019 LOTTO MAX draw.
"This is my first big win," said Covelli, while at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to pick up his winnings.
The 59-year old letter carrier took his ticket to a retailer to get it checked.
"That’s when I heard the music that told me I won," he smiled. "The woman working said she never heard that sound before!"
The married father of three and grandfather of one plans to pay off some bills and get something nice for his grandson.
"This win gives me a little extra cushion for my upcoming retirement," Tony added.
The winning ticket was bought at The Hospice of Windsor & Essex County on Riverside Drive in Windsor.
