Goh will join Alberta Health Services, where she will be working to help promote its organ and tissue donation program.

Many people have been taking to social media to send their well-wishes to Goh, with some noting the impact she’s had on people’s lives in the city.

She supported our family greatly when our granddaughter was ill with Aplastic Anemia and needed a bone marrow transplant and match.
I will forever be grateful and will never forget her.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

What a loss – in terms of quality of reporting, professionalism, and connection with the community. 🩷 This one really tugs at the heartstrings. 🥺 Will be hard to fill her always-stylish shoes. 👠
