Not sure what to say?

Delmus I will miss stopping by the lot and talking with you. You always had a smile and a kind word. Thank you for being a good friend. I was blessed to know you.

We are so sorry to hear that Delmus has died. May God Bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

I remember Delmus from way back when, about 1957, I had a 1957 Thunderbird with a Supercharger and Delmus had a Chrysler "300" and we went out off 87 and Riverside and raced! Sorry I lost contact for many years.He was a cool guy!Thanks for the memory"GOD bless all"

Ricky & Teresa,
So sorry to learn about your dad. One of the most outstanding things that I can remember about him is that he always complimented you both and was very proud of you. He was a true friend to us and will never be forgotten. Faye Daniels

Delmus was a kind and honorable man, and a true "car guy". He always liked having the fastest Corvette in Macon, and his love for cars was perhaps only surpassed by his love for his wife. I will truly miss him.

Delmus was truly a legend among the hot rodders in this area. Although I had only heard his name at the time I remember the first time I met him. In 1969 I was at RC Vance's station on Napier avenue and heard a loud car nearby. Looking up the street I saw a gold 1969 L88 Corvette pulling out of a side street and heading that way. It rumbled into the parking lot, rattling the windows in the building, and out stepped Delmus. We became good friends over the years, mostly because of our common...

Delmus will surely be missed. A smile from a great friend will surely and sadly be missed. Always friends from Len Berg's and from all the other good old days, car lot too.

Delmus and I go way back to the old days from Golf Club & Moose Lodge to Len Berg's. Sure will miss your smile and all the laughs we enjoyed so much. God will be with you. Miss you already.
