"I have always been fully transparent about BUB's health, and it was no secret that she was battling a persistent and aggressive bone infection," he added.
"Dearest BUB, I will never forget your generosity, your limitless supply of love, or your uncanny ability to bring so much magic and joy to the world," he said, ending the caption with: "Please visit all of us in our dreams."
