On April 27, 1957 Moe Pancer and his son Stan, at 22 years of age, opened the doors of a new deli called Moe Pancer’s Delicatessen. Stan’s wife Evelyn, who also was a part of the opening, happened to give birth to their first son Michael on that same day. Moe Pancer’s became a regular meeting place for large steel companies, building groups, movie stars, hockey players and rock bands. The bands RUSH and Anvil grew up with the Deli. Comedian John Candy had said it became a « family home away from home. » As staff joined the ranks, most of them never left.
