Death of Ben
When Peter was going to Horizon Labs, May made him lunch. She went out with Ben the night that Peter began to experience his powers, and didn't pay much heed to his behavior.

A few days later, May informed Peter that Ben had been killed during a bank robbery. Later Peter noticed the financial strain that was being put on May and decided to get a decent job to help her.

Caring for Peter
Ted Grant returned Peter home one day, and despite thanking him, May warned Ted that she remembered that people used to get hurt around him, and that she wanted Peter left out of it.
