Weeks after Sonya Eddy unexpectedly passed away, producers of ABC’s “General Hospital” have formally announced plans to dedicate a special episode set to air in March that will honor the actress who had portrayed Epiphany Johnson on the series since 2006.

At the conclusion of the Wednesday, January 11 episode, the soap aired a 15-second “In Loving Memory” clip featuring some of Eddy’s most memorable scenes, including her performances at the annual Nurses’ Ball. 

Later in the day, the show shared the clip on its social channels, noting, “Sonya may be gone, but she’ll never be forgotten. Our #GH60 celebration will kick off in March with a celebration of her life and her character, the formidable Epiphany Johnson.”

The announcement of the special episode comes on the same day executive producer Frank Valentini and cast members from the show appeared before the press during ABC’s portion of the annual Winter Television Critics Association press tour. The soap is celebrating its 60th anniversary this year and is currently the longest-running American TV drama in history.

Watch the Sonya Eddy “In Loving Memory” clip below and make sure to tune in for the special dedication episode in March.

    • Given that we've each commented that Rachel's nonverbal “tells” were definitely meant to be foreboding today.  I'd say there's still an evil streak in Rachel. Also, her Johnny reference seemed oddly knowing... So, I enjoy that this one is a bit smarter, and less weirdo Wednesday Adams with a stuffed snake.
    • I do get that.  I also did think Rachel was the child Kristen and Brady deserved though lol.
    •   I kinda like that Rachel's not really a demon anymore. Kristen's daughter or not, it wasn't necessary for her to be like that.  And just like with GH, we all know that Ron thinks it's funny to write the kids as nasty, obnoxious little sh*ts

    • I don't get it either.  It's just a story running in a different city about adoption with anonymous sources.  Why does anyone care?  It's not like she's outing Brook Lynn by name or even touching on her story from what I understood.
    • I loved the Andre/Nicole scene. The actors really sold all the emotions that came with it.    Sean has such chemistry with Karla and Daphne
