TALLAHASSEE – The Florida Lottery announces that Victor Franzese, of Port St. Lucie, claimed a $1,000 a week for life prize in the multi-state Draw game, CASH4LIFE®, from the January 8, 2018, drawing. He chose to receive his winnings as a one-time, lump sum payment of $1,000,000.

Franzese purchased his winning CASH4LIFE Quick Pick ticket from Publix, located at 900 Northeast Ocean Boulevard in Stuart. The retailer will receive a $2,000 bonus commission for selling the winning CASH4LIFE ticket.
