Sean spent the last week in bed at home where he died, his partner Michael Kaplan explained. The two had dated off and on since the '90s and lived together about six years. They moved to the D.C. area from Portland when Kaplan took a job with AIDS United, a non-profit group. Sasser was not one of the original "Real World: San Francisco" cast members but became a household name as his relationship with Zamora was explored during the show's third season in 1994. It's remembered as a major turning point for gay visibility. For many straight fans of the show, it was the first time they'd seen a gay couple, much less one affected by AIDS in the days before anti-retroviral therapy became widely available in 1996.
