Missouri widow wins $199,000 jackpot with numbers related to dead husband

A widowed Missouri lady claims she won a $199,000 Show Me Cash lottery jackpot using numbers inspired by her late husband. After using a specific combination of numbers with personal meaning, an anonymous Missouri woman won a lottery prize of six figures.

The nameless woman, who stays unknown due to Missouri lottery winner privacy restrictions, entered the Missouri Lottery's Show Me Cash drawing on August 16. Show Me Cash is a daily in-state draw game with a $50,000 beginning jackpot that grows until someone matches all five chosen numbers.
 
$199k is a nice surprise, that's for sure. Must be a strange feeling though, winning with a connection to her past like that. Guess it goes to show mindfulness of loved ones left behind can pay off in its own way sometimes. Just hope she's found some peace since her husband passed, and these winnings don't stir up too many hard feelings along with the good.
