Savannah Guthrie Shares Daughter’s Emotional Drawing

On November 1, Savannah shared an old drawing made by her daughter, Vale, on Instagram. The drawing featured an umbrella in the rain and a handwritten message that read, “I know it might not seem like it but, I really need my mommy.” Savannah explained that the drawing captured the emotions her family continues to experience while trying to maintain some sense of normalcy. “The world goes on, things appear ‘normal’ as we try to keep going and be strong, especially for our young kids, but it’s not and it never will be,” she wrote.

She also described the heartbreak experienced by her siblings, husband, children and extended family as they continue waiting for answers. “We ache for her, we cry out for answers, we cannot move forward. We need someone to help us, tell us what you know,” Savannah shared. She described her mother as a light in the world and expressed her family’s desire to celebrate Nancy’s life and give her the dignity she deserves.

What Happened to Nancy Guthrie?

Nancy Guthrie was last seen at her home in the Catalina Foothills neighborhood near Tucson, Arizona, on the evening of January 31, 2026. Her family reported her missing the following day after she failed to attend a scheduled virtual church service. Authorities quickly began investigating the disappearance as a possible abduction. Investigators determined that the circumstances surrounding her disappearance were suspicious, and surveillance footage from outside her home became an important part of the investigation.

The FBI released images showing an armed individual wearing a mask and gloves outside Nancy’s front door. The individual appeared to tamper with the home’s security camera during the early morning hours. Nancy has medical needs that make her disappearance particularly concerning. She has difficulty walking, uses a pacemaker and requires daily medication for a heart condition.

Investigation Continues as Authorities Examine DNA Evidence

The investigation remains active, with law enforcement continuing to examine evidence and pursue potential leads. Investigators have worked with laboratory partners to advance DNA analysis and explore additional approaches that could help identify whoever may have been involved. Authorities have also continued asking members of the public to share information, including details that might initially seem insignificant. Even a small piece of information could potentially help investigators establish a timeline or identify a person connected to Nancy’s disappearance.

Family Offers Reward for Information

Savannah and her family have continued appealing to the public for help locating Nancy. The family has announced a reward of up to $1 million for information leading to her recovery. The FBI is also offering a separate reward for information connected to the disappearance. Anyone with information is encouraged to contact the FBI at 1-800-CALL-FBI (1-800-225-5324) or submit a tip through its official website.

Savannah Guthrie Continues Asking for Answers

Months after Nancy Guthrie disappeared, Savannah and her family are still living with the uncertainty of not knowing what happened to their mother and grandmother. Savannah’s latest message highlights the personal toll the disappearance has taken on her family, particularly her young children, who are also dealing with the absence of their grandmother. While the investigation continues, the family remains hopeful that someone will come forward with information that could help bring Nancy home. For Savannah, the public message is about more than keeping the case in the headlines. It is about finding answers for a family that desperately wants its mother back.
