UPDATE: Nursing home owner purchased 18,000 Powerball tickets for nurses and residents http://abc7.la/1Ou79iI

POMONA, Calif. (KABC) --
A Pomona nurse who won the record-breaking Powerball jackpot was given a ticket by her boss.

The 62-year-old woman is a senior registered nurse at Park Avenue Health Care and Wellness Center in Pomona, according to a spokesperson for nursing home owner Shlomo Rechnitz.

Rechnitz bought 18,000 tickets for his employees and residents at 80 nursing homes across California. Rechnitz sent 600 tickets by mail to the Park Avenue Health Care and Wellness Center.

The winning ticket was purchased at a 7-Eleven located at 4092 Chino Hills Parkway in Chino Hills. Revelers swarmed the store in celebration Wednesday evening.

The director of the wellness center confirmed to ABC7 the winner of the Powerball jackpot works at the facility as a nurse.

According to the director, they are unsure if the winning ticket was one of the tickets purchased by Rechnitz or if she bought it herself.

Rechnitz's spokesperson told ABC7 the nurse was unaware she'd won until her son sent her a picture of the ticket over the phone.

Even though the nurse knew she'd won, the spokesperson said she still finished her shift before going home.

One of the three winners of the record-breaking Powerball lottery jackpot in the United States became wealthy overnight thanks to the generosity of her boss, one of the American Jewish community’s leading philanthropists.

Shlomo Rechnitz, a health care magnate who owns 80 assisted living facilities throughout California, purchased nearly 18,000 lottery tickets for all of his employees, one of which happened to contain the winning numbers.

Lucky ********

Meanwhile, 73 tickets won $1 million prizes.

In Maryland, a couple that missed the jackpot nearly threw their ticket in the trash. It ended up winning them $1 million, Maryland's lottery said.

"I still can't breathe," the woman, only identified as Kathryn, 34, told lottery officials. "I just can't believe I almost threw away the ticket."

In Florida, a 19-year-old who had never played the lottery won $2 million, the Florida Lottery said in a press release.

Frederick Walker of Sanford saw an abandoned completed play slip and used those numbers in buying the winning ticket, which matched all five numbers with a $1 "power play" multiplier, the lottery said.
