Mama June Carries Anna ‘Chickadee’ Cardwell’s Ashes in Her Bracelet

Mama June always keeps her daughter close to her … revealing she has Anna “Chickadee” Cardwell‘s ashes in a piece of jewelry she always wears.

The reality star revealed the news to People in an interview published Saturday … saying she has a bracelet filled with Anna’s ashes — partially as her way of keeping Cardwell’s memory alive.

MJ told the outlet she’s always toting Anna around and talks about her daughter a lot — so, it certainly seems the late 29-year-old is never far from her mom’s mind.

June insists her daughter wanted to be cremated and toted around like she is … so, she’s really helping her kiddo live out one of her last wishes.

Reflecting on her death … June adds she never thought she’d lose a family member — and certainly didn’t think they’d have to deal with the grief while on a reality TV show.

As we reported … Anna passed away in December after a yearlong battle with cancer. Mama June announced the news in a heartfelt social media video.

The family planned to divide up Anna’s ashes after the funeral — and special jewelry or possibly crystals were part of the family’s plans
