Savannah Guthrie has shared a heartbreaking decades-old home video of her mother, Nancy, and insisted that the family is not giving up hope of finding her, as the search for the missing 84-year-old enters its 12th day.
In previously-unpublished home movies, Nancy is seen playing with her young children, including the future-“Today” host Savannah, before the video cuts to an old family portrait of the young mom and her three kids.
“Our lovely mom. We will never give up on her. Thank you for your prayers and hope,” Savannah said in the caption for the short video, which she shared on her Instagram Thursday morning, set to the song “May You Find a Light” by The Brilliance.

On Wednesday, FBI agents scoured the Catalina Foothills neighborhood where Nancy had lived since 1975, discovering a black glove around 1.5 miles from her house.
