Buy a cow.But after less than a year of incredible wealth -- taking home a $124.7-million lump-sum payment -- Ralph Stebbins has died at age 43.Robert Kolt, a spokesman for the family, said Tuesday that Stebbins died Saturday of heart failure at his home -- the location of which he would not reveal to protect the family's privacy. Kolt said that, to his knowledge, Stebbins did not have a history of heart problems and hadn't been ill."He seemed healthy and he was a very active guy," Kolt said. "I think everybody was surprised."Stebbins -- who before becoming a multimillionaire had worked for a well-digging company in the Port Huron area, -- found himself in legal trouble earlier this month when he was arrested after a confrontation with the boyfriend of his daughter Karin, Kolt said.The charges are domestic, but the details are unclear."Ralph loved his kids," Kolt said. "He was a very protective father."The Stebbinses were married 23 years. They have three children -- Candice, 22, Karin, 19, and Todd, 17.Kolt said the Stebbinses used their fortune to help family members.They also got the farm they had wanted.But they never bought that cow.http://www.freep.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article...NEWS99/61226027 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/31459-208000000-lotto-winner-dies-at-age-43/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
