See how this contestant honored her late mother while playing 'Wheel of Fortune.'

Wheel of Fortune contestant took home a big pot of money during Friday's episode, but she couldn't have done it without the guidance of her late mother.

While participating in the Bonus Round, a contestant by the name of Kristin Jones was solving a puzzle in the category "What Are You Doing?" when she immediately guessed three letters that ended up bringing her swiftly to victory.

As seen in the clip shared by the WOF Instagram account, Jones wasted no time guessing the answer, which was "Moving Far Away," winning her $40,000 dollars in the bonus round.

After her big win, host Pat Sajak told Vanna White that he had a conversation with Jones about her guesses, which she seemed to have rattled off rather quickly, as she revealed that the letters had a very special meaning to her.

"I was talking to Kristin and she lost her mom, sadly," Sajak explained. "But mom was looking after her because those letters she called so quickly, that was mom's initials."

"She saw to it that Kristen solved that," Sajak added, warranting a wave of "Awws" from the audience.

"That is so sweet," White added.
