The news that Boss died by suicide brought me right back to the morning that broke my heart.
When I heard the news that Stephen"tWitch" Boss, who went from being a dancer and actor to a mainstay of daytime television as the DJ and co-executive producer for, had died at age 40, my reaction, after the initial shock and sadness, was anger.
I was dropping off my kids at school in 2009 when I saw my mother's name on my phone. She usually didn't call this early so I answered with concern. She told me in a quivering voice that my closest childhood friend had taken his life. He was in his early 40s, single and had been struggling with mental health issues, which I didn't know at the time.
Dancer and DJ Stephen"tWitch" Boss arrives at the premiere of STX Entertainment's"Bad Moms" at Mann Village Theatre on July 26, 2016 in Westwood, California. Boss died by suicide in December 2022.His face would light up when he saw me. Each time my mother called up the stairs to say it was time to go, my heart sank. He made me feel seen. A few years later, we moved away. I saw him a couple of times after that, but as our parents' friendship faded, so did our visits.
He had been struggling with mental illness, which I did know until after his passing. His mother found him. They lived in London and we lived in the U.S., so I didn't go to the funeral, but my own mother talked to his about her grief.
