Another prominent High River resident has passed away.

Scott Forbes was a cancer survivor and advocate for the High River Hospitals Cancer Care Centre.

Cathy Couey, with the High River and District Health Care Foundation says Forbes will be missed.

"We were sure sorry to hear about Scott's passing. But, one heck of a guy and when you talk about someone who's made an impact on our community, Scott is certainly one of those. And in particular the Community Cancer Centre here at the hospital."

Forbes funeral is set for Thursday, February 7, at 4 o'clock at the Highwood Memorial Centre.
