‘General Hospital’ star Sonya Eddy dead at 55

Sonya Eddy, who appeared on more than 500 episodes of “General Hospital” as nurse Epiphany Johnson, has died, a producer of the soap opera said.

A cause of death wasn’t released for Eddy, who was 55.

“I am heartbroken about the loss of the incredible Sonya Eddy,” executive producer Frank Valentini said Tuesday in a statement to Variety.

“I truly loved her not only as an actress, but as a friend. The lights in the hub of the nurse’s station will now be a little dimmer, but her spirit and light will live on in both the show and our set. On behalf of the entire GH cast and crew, we send our deepest sympathy to her family, friends and fans. She will be very missed.”

In addition to starring on “General Hospital” from 2006 to 2015, Eddy earned more than 100 acting credits during a career spanning more than two decades.

Born in the San Francisco Bay Area, Eddy appeared on popular series such as “Crazy Ex-Girlfriend,” “Girl Meets World,” “Mike & Molly,” “Glee” and “Malcolm in the Middle.”

“My friend @sonyaeddy passed away last night,” Oscar-winning actress Octavia Spencer wrote Tuesday on Instagram.

“The world lost another creative angel. Her legions of @generalhospitalabc fans will miss her,” Spencer continued. “My thoughts and prayers are with her loved ones, friends, and fans!”
