For the fifth time this year someone in Thunder Bay is collecting a major lottery windfall.
Len and Joanne Carr are expected to pick up their cheque for $1.5 million in the SickKids Dreams and Discoveries Winter Lottery in Toronto on Friday, April 20.
Len owns an electrical contracting business in the city and the couple have two sons aged 24 and 26.
Both Joanne and Len lost parents to illness, which inspired them to give back. Len is president of the local curling club in Thunder Bay. One of his junior curlers is currently being treated at SickKids for leukemia
They plan to use the money for retirement.
The Carrs have supported the SickKids Lottery since 2007.
