A retired Windsor couple, married for 54 years, are smiling ear to ear as they won the Windsor Regional Hospital Foundation’s May Mega Monthly 50/50 Grand Prize worth $88,015.

The winning ticket number belonged to 78-year old Larry Stanciu, who was self-employed in the Tool and Die industry.  Stanciu had purchased the ticket along with family friend Carol Parent (seen in the photo).

In a heartwarming twist, they decided to make a generous donation back to the foundation.

The Stanciu couple confesses to being “Big Windsor Boosters” donating to many local causes.
