Nneka Garland had been at GH since 2001 and was assistant to then executive producer Jill Phelps when she came on the show. She was recently promoted to producer which everyone at the show was excited about because she was loved by all. As a producer she was a huge asset to the show. As a person she was a lover of life and loved by all for her work ethic and larger than life personality.”
Ingo then added, “My daughter just said your name Nneka. I wish you could’ve heard it. She saw your picture on my Instagram and said pretty dress and pretty shoes.”

Heaven has gained an Angel. We miss you.”
