Cleaning Lady Cleans Up!

The 67-year-old cleaning woman stepped forward Friday to claim the $294 million Mega Millions jackpot, the second-largest jackpot ever to go to a single person in North America.

Williams cleaned homes after retiring as a custodian at the University of Massachusetts-Lowell. Friends and family described her as a down-to-earth woman who fully intended to keep an appointment to clean a client's home this week until she was told she had to meet with financial advisers in Boston.

"She is a wonderful person," said Mary Recko, a worker in the physical plant department at UMass-Lowell. "Everybody liked her. All of us here are so happy that it was her who won."
