Delmar was born in Aurora, KS on December 12, 1938 to parents Mabel Budreau and George Bisnett. He grew up alongside four siblings: Raymond, Pauline, Louise, and Virgil.

After the death of his first wife, Delmar found love again with fellow high school classmate, Phyllis Cox of Greenville, TX, formerly of Concordia, KS, and they married in 1998.
