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In previously-unpublished home movies, Nancy is seen playing with her young children, including the future-“Today” host Savannah, before the video cuts to an old family portrait of the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.

It comes as investigators say they have received 18,000 tips since Nancy’s disappearance on Jan. 31, with that number surging since Tuesday’s publication of surveillance footage taken from the doorbell camera of her Tucson, Arizona, home.
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.
It is unclear if authorities believe it is the same glove worn by the suspect seen on surveillance footage on the night Nancy went missing.
On Thursday morning, a white tent was spotted outside of Nancy’s home in the Catalina Foothills neighborhood north of Tucson, although it was taken down after a little over an hour.

Authorities did not say what the forensic tent was being used for.
The FBI and local police expanded their search into the shrubbery and desert vegetation around Nancy’s house on Wednesday, carrying water bottles to beat the heat as temperatures soared to 80 degrees.
They also continued to examine the area close to the house of Savannah’s other daughter, Annie, who lives about a 9-minute drive away from her mother, also in Catalina Foothills, with her husband, Tommaso Cioni.
It was not immediately clear what they were looking for as they conducted their search, speaking to neighbors as they carried out their inquiries.

“They were just asking some general questions, wondering if there was anything, any information we could shed on the Nancy Guthrie issue. Wanted to look around the property and after that, cameras and such,” Annie’s neighbor Ann Adams told The Associated Press on Wednesday.
“They did ask specifically for the 31st of January and the morning of the first of February and then they wanted to know if we saw anything suspicious on cameras since then,” she added.
