Delmar ran and operated a deli in Queens, with his sandwiches being touted as the best the borough had to offer. He owned a cat named Murph that stayed with him in the deli during work hours. Peter Parker was one of his regular customers, who visited him to buy food in the afternoons. Parker's frequent visits caused him and Delmar to form a friendship, as well as familiarize Delmar with Parker's aunt, whom he held an interest in. Delmar also came to know Aaron Davis as well due to his frequent visits to his store.[1]
