A Jacksonville woman is $20,000 richer after coming very close to winning a Powerball lottery jackpot worth millions.
Susan Matthews matched four of the five white balls in a recent drawing and also had the Powerball
number.
She picked up her prize today from the Arkansas Scholarship Lottery Little Rock Claim Center.
Matthews bought her winning ticket at Sufficient Grounds Metro in downtown Little Rock.
When claiming her prize, she told lottery staff that in the past year she has lost her husband and
mother, and her home was hit by a tornado. She said that the prize could not have come at a better
time.
