Original Toronto Star caption: Not too late: Pensioner A.E. (Bert) Ralph, 76, Shelburne, says he wishes he'd had his $ 100,000 cheque from Wintario 20 years ago. I'd have lived it up a little. But he and his wife, Alice, plan to make good use of the money. They hope to buy themselves a house and a car.
