In 1993, he underwent two liver transplants and subsequently established the James Redford Institute for Transplant
Awareness, a nonprofit organization that was established to inform the public about organ and tissue donation.
James, Robert Redford’s third child, is survived by his wife, Kyle, and their two children, Dylan and Lena.
It is with profound sadness that we grieve the loss of James Redford, our Co-Founder, our inspiration and our friend.
With Jamie came love and contagious joy. He approached everything he did with kindness and warmth, and an openness that spread itself easily among others. (1/5) pic.twitter.com/N3hbOh0ELr

The pain of losing a child is incalculable, and it is an experience that no parent should bear. During this challenging period,
my thoughts and prayers are with Robert Redford and the rest of James’s family alike. James, may you rest in peace. We trust that you will find solace in the garden of the Lord.
