Mama June’s Daughter, Anna ‘Chickadee’ Cardwell, Dead At 29
Not too long before Anna Cardwell passed away, the mother of two wanted to go on a family trip. Luckily, everyone rallied together to head to Gatlinburg for her. The only one who could not attend was Alana ‘Honey Boo Boo’ Thompson as she is in college in Colorado.
Update: Aunt DoeDoe has shared her thoughts since on Anna’s passing. Read more here.
There had been some hope as Anna had completed her last round of radiation and seemed in good spirits. She was indulging in a special brand of pickles, something Mama June and the whole family loves. Unfortunately, things seemed to take a turn on Friday, December 8th when prayers were asked for from fans. It does look like Mama June and Anna had made up, though.
Her aunt Doe Doe Shannon started by asking for prayers on Facebook which was followed by Anna’s sister, Pumpkin. By evening, the two turned to Instagram along with Mama June. She then made a TikTok saying that they saw all of the messages and were going through the transition. Anna was still with them but when the time came, they would share it on social media as a family. Finally, she still hoped the prayers would keep coming in. A Reddit thread was started soon after where the OP noted this:
- Having multiple members of my own family died from metastatic cancer, the final stage can take hours to months

They shared photos to let their followers know she was now an Angel via their social media accounts. This was just as Mama June had promised and they used a sweet family photo with all of them smiling.
Everyone also wondered if Honey Boo Boo made it home. Get details here. Mama June also broke her silence on the death today.
Leaving Behind Love
Though Anna Cardwell did not have it easy, she did end up reconciling with her family. She leaves behind her mother, Mama June Shannon, and June’s husband, Justin Stroud. Anna also had two daughters, Kaitlyn, 11, and Kylee, 8 as well as a beloved boyfriend. Additionally, she has her Aunt Doe Doe Shannon, three sisters, Lauryn ‘Pumpkin’ Efird, Jessica Shannon, and Alana ‘Honey Boo Boo’ Thompson. Last but not least, she leaves behind her brother-in-law, Josh Efird, and her nieces and nephews, Ella, Bentley, Stella, and Sylus. May she finally be at peace and no longer in pain. Our thoughts are with the family during this devastating time.
