Born in Washington DC, August 27, 1956, he was a son of the late James Herbert Larner and Eleanor Victoria Benedetti Larner.

He is survived by his husband, Michael Scott "Mike" Eberhart, whom he married July 7, 2014. There are three siblings: Michael Larner of Odenton, Maryland, Marie Bethman and her husband, Charlie, of Arnold, Maryland, and Mark Larner of Florida. Three nephews also survive: Ryan Bradshaw, Alex Bradshaw and Sam Bradshaw.
