ATLANTA – A brand new vehicle has arrived for one lucky Covington man. James Lofton won his sedan from being selected as a winner from the Jackpot Series Second Chance Promotion, winning a 2015 Kia Optima EX.
The lucky winner was awarded his vehicle Wednesday at Ed Voyles Kia, 2145 Cobb Parkway SE in Smyrna.
“My wife and I are very excited,” said Lofton, 81. “I will drive it occasionally.”
With his wife, Barbara, the couple – married for nearly 56 years – have three adult daughters.
Lofton is a retired federal banking examiner.
