Meanwhile Jennifer Labre of Niagara Falls won $500,000. She bought her ticket at the Avondale on Dunn Street.
Labre is a 41-year-old waitress and mother of two.
She would like to use her winnings to renovate her mothers home, and take her sons on a trip to Costa Rica.
Leavens is a retired teacher and a married, father of two.
He says he'd like to buy a smartphone, because he still has a phone that hangs on the wall.
