Addressing her son's untimely death, she wrote, “Family and friends, thank you for all the love, prayers and encouragement. Please know I see all the messages, texts, posts and the phone calls. I can’t use words right now. Please know I will reach out when I can."
“Stephen Laurel, your mother loves you to eternity and beyond,” she concluded her statement issued on Instagram on December 16.
Prior to his death, Alexander also mentioned her dancer son in several other Instagram posts. On his birthday on September 29, she wrote a heartfelt tribute to her 40-year-old son. The post read “Scrolling through, realizing any picture is inadequate to describe the happiness and pride I feel on today.”
“All the professional accomplishments not withstanding, what strikes me more is the man you have become…from a son and brother, to a husband and father.. I couldn’t have envisioned a better journey.. Not always easy but oh the outcome is….everything,” she added.
Alexander shared an 'Ellen Show' clipping of Boss and Ellen DeGeneres as part of her "Life is Good" challenge on Instagram.
In another post she dedicated to Boss for his 39th birthday, Alexander wrote, "Happy, Happy Birthday @sir_twitch_alot ! As I think back to the night, 39 years, 2:22AM, God granted me the privelege of being your Mom"
The former 'So You Think You Can Dance' star reportedly left his home in an Uber to the LA hotel on December 12, a day before his death. His wife and fellow dancer Allison Holker ran into an LAPD station as she was suspicious of Boss' abruptly leaving home without his car. The cops later received a call notifying them of a shooting at the motel, near his Encino home. On arrival, the cops found Boss dead from a gunshot wound.
According to TMZ, the police discovered a suicide note that was discovered in the motel room where Boss’ body was found. Details of the letter are not yet known and the note is claimed as “an ambiguous reference to his past challenges.”
Boss is survived by his wife Allison Holker and their three children, Weslie, 14, Maddox, 6, and Zaia, 3.
