Delmas was born April 2, 1942 in Wendell, West Virginia, the son of the late Tucker and Amanda Kimble McCauley.
A General Motors retiree, Delmas worked for 33 years and retired in 1999 as a supervisor in the final process and trim department. He and his wife also were the proud owners of Café 534 and the DD Drive Thru in Newton Falls for many years.
He was a social member of the Loyal Order of the Moose 1234 in Ravenna and also the former Niles Loyal Order of the Moose. Delmas was also a social member of the VFW Post 3332 and AMVETS Post 112 in Newton Falls. He was a member of the Lake Milton Hunt & Fish Club and the Mosquito Bowman Club. Delmas was an avid hunter and fisherman both in Ohio and in his roots of West Virginia where he owned hunting property. Every now and then, Delmas enjoyed trying his luck with scratch offs and an occasional trip to the casino. He also enjoyed participating in car shows with his 1959 Buick and 2002 Trans Am.
Delmas and his family were longtime members of the former Christ Our King Catholic Church in Warren and now belong to St. John Paul II Parish in Warren.
Delmas was married on January 5, 1964 to the former Doris L. Jeeter and they have been married for the last 54 years; together they shared the love of two children Delmas L.
