So, I was looking up this guy, Tripp Nugent. It’s kind of a sad story, but I wanted to piece together what happened.
First, I checked out some news from a team he was somehow connected to. They mentioned on a Monday morning that Tripp Nugent, who they called a “young member of the organization’s extended family,” had passed away.
Then, I dug a bit deeper and found an obituary for a Kenneth Tripp Nugent III. The dates say he lived from 1980 to 2023. Could be him, could be not. I had no idea if this was our guy, but hey, it was something.
After that, I stumbled upon some info about a kid named Tripp Nicholas “Trippy” Nugent. This one really got to me. He was only 7 years old, and the description made him sound like a real fun kid. He was into golf, hockey, football, swimming, video games—you know, typical kid stuff. Smart, funny, energetic, talented. This one felt related, you know?
Then there was this thing about Jon Cooper, probably a coach or something, hanging out with a six-year-old Tripp Nugent at a morning skate. This kind of connected him to the hockey world, I guess.

Things I found out about that kid：
- He was 7 years old.
- He was into golf, hockey, football, swimming and video games.
- He had a nickname called “Trippy”.
I also looked at some obituary listings from Ashburn, Virginia, on a site called Legacy. They say it’s got a good collection of local obituaries, but it was kind of a dead end. Couldn’t confirm anything specific there.
Then I tried another website with recent online obituaries and memorial pages for people from Ashburn, Virginia. Again, I got some general info, like funeral details and stuff, but nothing that directly tied everything together about Tripp Nugent.
So, yeah, that’s pretty much where I’m at. I pieced together some bits, but there are still a lot of missing pieces about Tripp Nugent’s full story.
