Original Toronto Star caption: Happy surprise: Lloyd Lihou of St. Catharines gleefully tosses money into the air after his wife Una won $500;000 in the Provincial lottery. Una; 49; went to a bank thinking she had matched two numbers for a $10 prize. An employee told her three numbers matched; for 25. But the Ontario Lottery Corp. checked and found that all seven numbers matched; and this week called Una; whose name was on the ticket.
