In addition to his mother, Larry is survived by his brother, James Bassett and wife, Sandy, of Oklahoma City, OK; his partner of 21 years, Terrence "Terry" Ruppert and his family: Terry's parents Thomas and Elaine Ruppert of LaVale, MD, who Larry thought of as his second parents; brother, Thomas Ruppert and his wife, Rebecca, also of LaVale; sister, Nicole Malony and husband, Kevin, of Winchester, VA; nieces, Ami and Kelli Bassett, and nephews Zachary Ruppert, Reid Malony, and Grant Malony.
