Stephen ‘tWitch’ Boss’ celebration of life: Wife gathered friends and family in a massive farewell event
Among the 500 attendees was tWitch’s friend and coworker Ellen DeGeneres
Stephen “tWitch” Boss’ wife, Allison Holker Boss, gathered friends and family in a massive celebration of life event on Saturday, February 11. The late dancer’s wife described him as a “light” during her heartfelt speech.
“He chose love, grace, and kindness,” she said, as reported by People. “And he deserves to be celebrated.”
According to the publication, the couple’s 14-year-old daughter, Weslie, also spoke at the event. Entertainment Tonight informed family pastor Joe Smith hosted the service, and Mickey Guyton and Andy Grammer performed.
Among the 500 attendees was tWitch’s friend and coworker Ellen DeGeneres, plus the show’s entire cast and crew. Wayne Brady, Loni Love, and Derek Hough were also there.
After Boss’ death, his family launched Move With Kindness, a foundation to honor the late choreographer’s legacy “by spreading love and mental health awareness.”
Almost two months after the passing of Stephen “tWitch” Boss, his widow and mother of his kids, requested in a California court to be named as the new owner of half of the late dancer’s estate. According to Holker Boss, her husband died without a will.
The 40-year-old dancer, actor, host, and tv producer shared kids Weslie, 14, Maddox, 6, and Zaia, 3. According to the court documents obtained by Page Six, when the pair married in 2013, tWitch did not have a net worth; therefore, her California Spousal Property Petition formally requested ownership of his assets.
