Alana "Honey Boo Boo" Thompson and Family Honor Anna "Chickadee" Caldwell After Her Death at 29

Alana "Honey Boo Boo" Thompson and her family are in mourning.

The former reality star's sister Anna "Chickadee" Caldwell, the eldest of June "Mama June" Shannon's four daughters, died Dec. 9 following a 10-month cancer battle. Her family announced her death the next day and shared personal tributes to her on social media.

"Last night we all surrounded Anna with love & let her know it was okay to go," Alana, 28, wrote on her Instagram, alongside a photo of Anna sitting in a director's chair on a set with her loved ones, her final family pic. "Unfortunately around 11pm Anna took her last breathe. Anna was in so much pain last night but now as a family we all know she is at peace now. I really don't know what to say as my heart is completely broken."

Anna, who starred with her family on Here Comes Honey Boo Boo and Toddlers & Tiara when Alana was a child, announced in an Instagram Live session in March that she had been diagnosed with stage 4 adrenal carcinoma, a cancer of the adrenal glands, located near the kidneys.

"Watching my 29 year old sister this last year battle this horrible disease hasn't been easy," Alana continued. "Anna was a fighter & still is."

The former reality star underwent several rounds of chemotherapy and in between treatments, she was able to watch Alana graduate from high school in May.

"I'm excited that she at least had seen me get through my first semester of college," the teen said in a TikTok video. "I really wish she would've seen me graduate but that'll be OK because she's going to be watching over me.

In addition to the teen and their mom, Anna is survived by her partner Eldridge Toney, daughters Kaitlyn, 11, and Kylee, 7, and sisters Jessica "Chubbs" Shannon, 27, and Lauryn "Pumpkin" Efird, 23.
