Have YOU Ever Known a Lottery Winner?

Brett's 1st cousin, Megan, won 1 Million Dollars in the Georgia Lottery on a scratch off over the weekend. We have been keeping this a secret until today. We woke up to find her picture on local newspaper, television and internet. This is so exciting..... I guess I will have to find a new baby sitter.... (She's the one on the right)


Grocery store co-workers ring up $1 million lottery win

Date: February 05, 2007


ATLANTA – Two grocery store co-workers are the newest members of Georgia’s $500 Million Club. Megan Maloy and Barbara "Chessi" Scarbary played the instant game Georgia's $500 Million Club and won a $1 million prize. They claimed their winnings at Georgia Lottery headquarters Monday as C & M Enterprizes.
"I almost passed out, and she screamed her lungs out," Scarbary said.
The pair purchased the lucky ticket Friday at Saddle Creek Texaco, 840 Hampton Rd. in McDonough. They scratched the ticket while parked in front of the store.
"I was just screaming," Maloy exclaimed. "There were people walking by staring at us."
Maloy, 24, and Scarbary, 18, work as customer service associates for Publix Super Markets. Maloy, a McDonough resident, is studying information technology at Clayton State University. Scarbary resides in Jackson and is studying business at Griffin Technical College.
According to Maloy, she will pay off her car, pay on her home, invest and start planning her wedding with her fiancé, Wayne.
Scarbary shares that she will pay off her car, pay bills, invest and purchase an automatic gate opener for her family's home.
"We're so excited that we haven't been able to sleep," Scarbary said. "It's still sinking in."
