Thank you, Allison, for your interview with People. We all embraced Twitch every single day, and He gave us his megawatt smile. Someone we only knew through television airwaves touched us all, and there are few, too few people like him in this world. I know he embraced the thought of hosting his own show, and I feel that the networks dropped a huge ball on that.

Twitch was a star long before Ellen, he was a graceful man. His dance with Kerrington showed all that. It was like he floated his way through life. He seemed humble and kind. I’m still in shock 2 months later, give credit where credit is due. He made it in life long before the Ellen show. What a kind soul.

I will truly miss Stephen, as I know many others will miss him as well. With his dancing and creativity and smile always made me watch whatever show he was on. When I heard what happened, I cried and I know at times, a person can have so many people around them but still feel alone but we develop a facade. I'm sending a big virtual hug to Alison and the family, my condolences and love and remember, he is away physically but his beautiful spirit will survive within our hearts and thoughts.

I am deeply saddened by the tragic passing of Stephen Laurel "tWitch" Boss. My deepest condolences to his family and all who felt his sparkle of light on this earth. Let us be reminded that we can´t constantly live life as performers. We must take the time out to self care and be our true authentic selves, without constantly having cameras on. The abode should be a place of refuge not constant work. Peace be with tWitch in his resting place. I´ve watched all his movies and followed him throughout his career. He has an iconic legacy of greatness and resiliency. I salute you, our forever king of hip hop dance.

I was a fan since Stomp the Yard
I could watch him dance for hours because every performance was different & unique. Watching him on so you think you could dance you could see in each performance the detail that went into & the growth with each performance . Seeing him on Ellen we saw a different side he was fun, funny & so down to earth.
His smile lit up a dark room. I am so sorry he will forever be missed. Thank you Twitch for all the memories, videos, you will be in my heart forever praying for his family that God continues to give you the strength you need everyday

My heart breaks for his wife, children, and his parents. I loved watching him on Ellen. His wife and all of his family need never ending love and support during this time, and the years to come. I can't imagine how they are coping through all of this. Allison lost her best friend and I pray she can get through this and one day find happiness again. To lose a spouse has to be so hard, but to lose him this way, is unimaginable. My thoughts and prayers are with her and the family.

A day has not gone by that the sadness of his leaving his family is not constantly in my mind. I pray he is in a better place and I also pray with his family for strength from up above. What you are going through is unimaginable. It's times like these that it is difficult to be strong and have faith in his plan, but I pray that you do feel his light and believe that this heartbreaking path in Twitch's journey has a purpose. I will continue to watch every performance every day as his energy motivates to on and find my purpose. With all the love I can share,
A very sad supporter of the GREAT Stephen "Twitch" Boss

I am absolutely heartbroken, tWitch’s passing has hit me hard, I’m not quite sure why, maybe because he was the kind of person who we felt we sort of knew or we wanted to knowbecause he radiated joy through dance and who he was. He was my favorite dancer on SYTYCD and performed many of my favorite dances, I always looked forward to his appearances and my daughters and I were so excited he was a judge this past season. Another reason tWitch was special was that my daughters and I watched him and SYTYCD together (my husband even knows him). We also laughed together with him on Ellen’s Game of Gameshe brought us together with joy. I’m a 54-year-old mom of 2 teenage daughters, with a full-time job, living just south of Boston, and probably very little in common with him, but tWitch made me smile. I wish there was something I could do for his beautiful family, I can’t imagine their heartache. I will pray for them and hold them and tWitch in my heartand thank him for the joy he gave me.

I just wanna start by saying how sorry I am to the Twitch Boss Family .My Thoughts and Prayers are with you always I will always remember the first time I watched twitch on the Ellen show and how he danced it was so soothing and it was like medicine for my soul for the day I remember telling my son wow ..look he can really dance and how I watched him every day on the Ellen show and how I really didn't know him on a personal level I just felt I knew him and it was like I was part of the audience also the way he came every day with a Smile on his face and when ready to make people feel good just by getting them out of their seat to dance with him . Twitch will never ever be forgotten and he will forever be in my heart .And may everyone let's remember twitch by his Dancing and his loving embrace he gave to many people he knew and didn't know like me .I pray that God shows the Boss family much love at this time and may God wrap you in his Loving arms at this time and to embrace love and never take anything for granted and always look out for one another and check on each other often ..Love you Twitch fly high with the angles and My The Boss Family find love and much comfort at this time threw Lord Jesus .I Love you Allison and the children.Your Friend Always ,Shannon L From ,Pa

"Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me. My Father´s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. You know the way to the place where I am going." - John 14:1-4
