Allison Holker and her kids have celebrated their first Easter without their patriarch, Stephen' tWitch' Boss.
People, especially the dancer's family members, have remained in disbelief following the confirmation of his unexpected death by suicide. Despite that, his immediate family has continued to move forward, using certain events to remind him — and his fans — how special he was during his 40 years of life. tWitch was well-known for his second-place win on "So You Think You Can Dance?" and his relationship with Ellen DeGeneres.

The Boss-Holker family has continued to do what makes them happy in the months following the beloved tWitch's death, celebrating this year's Easter with a hunt. Holker shared how she and their two children — Zaia Boss and Maddox Laurel — marked the occasion without the freestyle hip-hop dancer there with them.
The adorable tots looked as happy as they collected colorful plastic eggs in buckets during an outing. While Zaia donned a long-sleeve wine top, dark blue jeans, and black-and-white sneakers, her big brother wore a graphic black T-shirt, blue jeans, and matching sneakers.
Both kids proudly rocked their natural hair for the day out, with Maddox's tresses styled into twist-outs. Beneath the post, their doting mother wrote, "HAPPY EASTER from my babies."
A look at Holker's comment section unveiled people's undeniable love for her as it was filled with thoughtful remarks. One netizen typed, "Thinking of your family on this holiday and wishing you continued strength as you navigate this new normal."
A second person commented, "I'm so glad you are sharing with us again. We loved watching the love between both of you ❤️❤️❤️." A third Instagram user acknowledged, "I know the strength it took you to do this. To get up and do it. May you continue to feel love from those of us supporting you; I know it's not easy, and you are doing amazing!"
A fourth supporter expressed hope that the mother-of-three was "getting peace and joy here and there more often than not," adding, "I know your babies keep you present throughout each day. Easter blessings."
The commenter could not be far from the truth as the "So You Think You Can Dance" contestant admitted to them giving her a sense of pride last month. The Blast noted that the doting mom dropped many images showcasing her kids having fun in the park, on the basketball court, and even playing dress up.
The slides were led by Holker's first child, Weslie Fowler, who tWitch adopted after they walked down the aisle. The pic showed the mother-daughter duo smiling at the camera as they posed inside a car. The Instagram post has been liked over 800k times, with comments from nearly 10k praising the now-single mom for being strong.
The Mother-Of-Three Shared A Heart-Wrenching Video In Honor Of Her Late Beau
Shortly after her husband's passing, The Blast reported that Holker shared an emotional clip highlighting their sweet memories before his death. Set to the tunes of Rihanna's "Lift Me," the video opened with a black-and-white snapshot of a smiling tWitch alongside the overlay, "In Loving Memory of Stephen Laurel Boss."
What followed were images of the couple laughing with each other, going on vacations, sharing a kiss on their wedding day, and celebrating the arrival of their little ones. Family portraits that showed the late "Drop Dead Diva" actor having fun with Weslie and the other kids were also included in the footage. The compilation was made even more sorrowful with the Timpanogos High School alum's caption that read:
"To my husband, best friend, babe, Chee-chalker, Superman and father of my children I LOVE YOU FOREVER and ALWAYS! We will forever remember you as the true beacon of light that you were and we will continue to cast your light and love throughout the world. Thank you for our incredible memories and our beautiful life shared together."
Several notable public figures, such as Derek Hough, Jessie J, Caitlin Carver, and Jason Lee, expressed their sadness at the noticeable loss in the comment section.
