Boeing employee from Auburn announced as Powerball winner

Becky Bell, a Supply Chain Analyst for Boeing, was grocery shopping with her daughter at her local Fred Meyer on Sunday, Feb. 5.

She looked over at the Washington’s Lottery vending machine displaying that the Powerball jackpot was $747 million.

Bell worked at Boeing for 36 years – the same company that just six days earlier had delivered its last 747 jumbo jet .

“That’s when it hit me, had to buy one more ticket,” said Bell.

The winning numbers drawn were 5, 11, 22, 23, 69, and the Powerball 7. Bell instantly became wealthy.
