Trish Goff’s son, Nyima Ward, passed away at the age of 27, leaving behind a legacy of following his dreams.

Nyima, who had been walking runways since he was 18, tragically died on May 29, 2024, but his obituary celebrates his life with fond memories.

Described as a “boy of the world” with a passion for travel and animals, Nyima was known for his love of friends and family. His obituary, posted on the Roberts Funerals site, highlighted his fierce living and deep love for those around him.

Nyima’s parents, Trish and Aaron Ward, are mourning the loss of their only child. Trish, a former ’90s supermodel, had also ventured into real estate and is currently the Global Advisor for Sotheby’s Realty. Nyima began his modeling career following in his parent’s footsteps, and his passion for the industry was evident in the work he did.

In addition to his modeling career, Nyima was known for his kind heart, often saving stray animals and seeking animal care tips from his mom. His family is requesting donations to be made in his memory to The Florida Wildlife Corridor Foundation in lieu of flowers.
