The star’s younger brother Patrick Stone and wife Tasha, who are River’s parents, made the tragic announcement earlier this week via CORE, the Center for Organ Recovery and Education.
‘He was our tiny jokester, our water baby, our little foodie,’ the family said in a statement to the organization. ‘Now, River has also become a hero. In death, he made a far greater contribution to this world than most of us could ever hope to ourselves.
‘And he proved that the shortest of lives can also be the most meaningful ones. As an organ donor, River saved three lives.’
The family said ‘there will never be a day, hour, a minute or even a second that we won’t miss our sweet baby.’
Stone is mother to three teen sons – 21-year-old Roan, 16-year-old Laird and 15-year-old Quinn.
