General Hospital Spoilers: Sonya Eddy Dead at 55 – GH Fans Mourn Loss of Epiphany Johnson’s Talented Portrayer

General Hospital (GH) spoilers reveal that Sonya Eddy (Epiphany Johnson) is dead at 55, so the news comes as a shock to the soap world. Epiphany had become a fan favorite on GH for her quick wit and big heart over the years, so it’s tough to think about her not being around anymore.

Sonya Eddy’s talent was a huge part of why Epiphany became such a popular nurse at the hospital – one who was well on her way to being a doctor.

Epiphany recently took the MCATs after studying hard for months, but her career journey will come to a somber end.

Viewers are now mourning the loss of Eddy and trying to wrap their heads around this sad bombshell. The same goes for others in the industry since this is certainly such a devastating blow.

Octavia Spencer is an Oscar-winning actress who also considered Eddy a friend. On Instagram, Octavia Spencer offered up a tribute in loving memory of Eddy.

“My friend @sonyaeddy passed away last night. The world lost another creative angel. Her legions of @generalhospitalabc fans will miss her…My thoughts and prayers are with her loved ones, friends, and fans!” Spencer said in her heartfelt post.

Fans are also expressing their condolences on social media. “So very sad. She really got the spirit of a nurse right on #GH. Praying for her friends and family,” one Twitter user said.

Another fan tweeted, “This is so heartbreaking! Rest in Peace Sonya! I always love when Epiphany is on GH.”

Of course, the show will no doubt do something to remember Sonya Eddy once they have time to write a special tribute into the story.

Eddy will hopefully get the sendoff she deserves along with Epiphany, but this remains a crushing loss that’ll take some time to accept.

Our hearts go out to Eddy’s loved ones during this difficult time, but her memory will live on through all the wonderful onscreen moments she’s delivered.

General Hospital spoilers say Marshall Ashford (Robert Gossett) will face some tragic updates eventually – and the same goes for the friends and coworkers Epiphany will leave behind.
