Input: (CNN) -- The Endreson family lottery pool -- a tradition born out of their mother's long-term dreams -- finally paid off when the 17 siblings won a $20 million jackpot, New Jersey lottery officials said Thursday. 
  
 The siblings, ranging in age from 53 to 76, began playing the lottery decades ago because of their mother's dream of buying bungalows at the Jersey Shore, where most of the family lives. 
  
 After the hopeful matriarch, Flossie Endreson, passed away in 2004, the siblings chipped in to pay for funeral expenses and realized they had set aside too much. Instead of taking the remaining money back, the siblings started a new lottery pool in their mother's honor, said family spokeswoman Marie McHenry. 
  
 "We're a family of working people," McHenry said, "We just go to work every day like everyone else." 
  
 The Endresons' good fortune comes after their share of hardships. 
  
 Four family members lost their homes during Superstorm Sandy in 2012, and one sibling lost his life shortly after the storm. 
  
 The jackpot winnings "couldn't have come at a better time," McHenry said. 
  
 The siblings' father emigrated from Norway in the early 20th century, later meeting their mother on the Jersey Shore, where the family remained and settled in Ocean County, McHenry said. The pair had 19 children, according to N.J. lottery. One child died at birth. 
  
 When asked what their mother would say about winning the lottery, one sibling shouted: "Hallelujah!" 
  
 The total jackpot was $20.1 million with the family opting to take a lump sum payment of $14 million, about $10 million after taxes, according to the New Jersey lottery. 
  
 Family members would not comment on how they plan to divide the winnings, but said they would share it with the three children of their recently deceased brother. 
  
 John Endreson, one of the siblings who lost his home during Superstorm Sandy, broke down during the press conference as he talked about the devastation of the storm. 
  
 The storm "depleted my savings and now things are looking pretty good. Thanks to the state of New Jersey and my mom. Thank you all," he said.

 Lottery winner gives $40 million jackpot to charity ||||| Seventeen brothers and sisters from New Jersey who pooled money for a decade to buy lottery tickets got the ultimate payout. Danielle Elias reports. (Published Friday, July 25, 2014) 
  
 Seventeen brothers and sisters from New Jersey who pooled money for a decade to buy lottery tickets got the ultimate payout -- a $20 million Pick-6 jackpot they'll use to repair homes they lost in Sandy, send their children to college and preserve the legacy of their late mother, who urged them to vie for the pot together in the first place. 
  
 The Endreson clan members, who range in age from 53 to 76, accepted the check from the New Jersey Lottery Thursday. They opted for a lump sum payment of $14 million -- about $10 million after taxes -- to share amongst themselves and with three children of a brother who died a few years ago.

 One of the sisters said the family began pooling small bills together 10 years ago because their mother wanted to invest in a future of family bungalows at the Jersey Shore. When she died, there was money left in a pot and they invested that in the lottery. They didn't win -- that time. 
  
 As the brothers and sisters considered how to preserve their mother's legacy, they decided to continue the tradition of the lottery pool. 
  
 Eventually, they won. The family describes themselves as hard-working people who "go to work every day like everyone else." 
  
 "You just can't even imagine the feeling," said sister Faith Schiabor, recalling when her sister phoned her to tell her they had won the top prize. "I just went into instant shock. I was really happy for her at first - i didn't think that it was our ticket. I thought she won. Then when she said it was the family lottery, I said, 'Oh my god.'" 
  
 Asked what their mother would say about the big lotto win, Schiabor's sister who purchased the winning ticket said, "She'd just be so laid back." 
  
 The lottery says the family's patriarch emigrated from Norway in the early 20th century and married a woman from the Jersey Shore. They set roots in Ocean County, and most of the family has been there since.

Output:
A huge Norwegian-American clan in New Jersey has a huge $20.1 million lottery jackpot to divvy up. The 17 Endreson siblings, ranging in age from 53 to 76, started a lottery pool a decade ago after the death of their mother, who dreamed of buying homes on the Jersey Shore, CNN reports. The sibling who bought the winning ticket—a $1 Pick 6 with the numbers 3, 12, 18, 34, 35, and 42—opted for a lump-sum payment of $14 million, which will be split among her 16 brothers and sisters and the three children of a brother who died a few years ago. Asked what their late mom would say about the jackpot, the woman who purchased the winning ticket said, "She'd just be so laid-back," while another sibling shouted, "Hallelujah!," reports NBC. At least three of the siblings lost their homes during Superstorm Sandy. "I just feel so lucky, and then this is just the icing on the cake," says John Endreson, who was able to rebuild with help from his brothers. "I depleted my savings and now things are looking up pretty good thanks to the state of New Jersey and my mom." Most of the siblings live in Ocean County, where 16 vehicle maintenance workers split an $86 million lottery prize last year.
