Sublett, Larry Paul
Residence: Lusby, MD
Death: Wednesday, April 29, 2026
Larry Paul Sublett, age 74, passed away on April 29, 2026, at his home in Lusby, Maryland, holding hands with his beloved wife, Maggie Sublett.

Larry was born in Birmingham, Alabama, to parents Ditsy and Bob Sublett. He graduated from Frederick Douglass High School in 1969 and soon after enlisted in the United States Navy. Serving as a radarman technician, Larry was honorably discharged and awarded the National Defense Service Medal for his service.

In August 1992, Larry married Maggie, with whom he shared a life filled with love, laughter, and travel. He was a proud and loving father to Sarah and Pat Pauletti, Alyssa Newton and Megan Yeh, Robert and Lew Sublett, Andrea Gordon and Jason Eckard.

Larry was preceded in death by his brother, Robert Earl Sublett, affectionately known as "Soupie" and brother-in-law, Tony Bodzer. He is survived by his sisters Dale Bodzer, brother's wife Cindy, and by his brother Jeral Sublett and his wife, Ramona.

Larry spent most of his life on the East Coast in the Washington, D.C. suburban area, enduring the traffic while working for numerous print companies and raising his family. He retired in 2012, though retirement simply meant shifting to part-time work around town and pursuing his many creative interests and travelling abroad.

He found joy in following his daily routine-morning crossword puzzles, coloring and gaming apps, discovering new recipes to cook for dinner, watching news then Jeopardy, and ending the day with some Jameson. Above all, Larry cherished time spent with his family, especially during family game nights he eagerly hosted and games he enjoyed creating. These moments-filled with laughter, competition, and his signature humor-became cherished traditions for his kids and grandchildren, Vance, Graham, Alyssa, Georgianna, and Guinevere.

Larry will be remembered for his quick wit, humor, and enduring love for his family. He leaves behind a legacy of creativity, dad jokes and "Larry-isms" that will be deeply missed by all who knew him.

Visitation will be held on Sunday, May 3, 2026, at Rausch Funeral Home in Lusby, Maryland. Family will receive friends and guests from 12 PM until 4 PM.
