Ellen DeGeneres took to social media to honor Stephen "tWitch" Boss after his tragic death.

DeGeneres uploaded a teary-eyed video on Friday urging her followers to "honor" the late DJ during the holiday season. "The past eleven days have been really tough for everyone," DeGeneres began.

"Everyone is in pain and trying to make sense of it, and we'll never make sense of it," she continued. "The holidays are hard, I think, anyway, but to honor tWitch I think the best thing that we can do is to laugh, hug each other, play games and dance and sing. That's the way we honor him, is we do the things that he loved to do, which is dancing."

The comedian added: "He loved music, he loved games, so we do that. "And I know it seems hard, it seems impossible, but that's how we honor him."

"So, happy holidays everybody," she said, before adding: "it's not a happy holiday, but…"

He really, really makes me laugh."

Her post continued: "I love you tWitch and you know that much. We tell each other that every day when we say goodbye after the show, we both say love you. He says love you much and I say 'Love you.' And so he's never going to be out of my life. He's always a part of my life."
