Nancy has been missing for more than a month, disappearing from her home in the early morning hours of February 1 – the same day a masked and armed intruder was caught on camera approaching her front door.
The man has not been identified, and authorities have not named any primary suspects or persons of interest in the case.
The Guthrie family visited the memorial surrounding the mailbox on Nancy’s Tucson-area property, days after Savannah revealed that the Guthrie family is now offering a $1 million reward for anyone who provides information that leads to their missing mother.
The 54-year-old “Today” host shared a touching video on her Instagram account on February 24, saying her family was willing to pay anyone who could help them find their mother.
While Savannah acknowledged her mother may have died, she said her family just wanted to know where she was and to bring her home.
“We still believe in miracles. We still believe she can come home,” she said. “We also know she may be lost. She may be gone. She may have returned to the Lord she loved and is dancing in heaven with her mom and her dad and her beloved brother.
“But we need to know where she is. We need her home. So we’re offering a $1 million family reward for any information that leads to her recovery.”
The Guthrie family’s prize will be added to the $100,000 already provided by the FBI and an additional $100,000 from an anonymous donor.
“So if you hear this news, if you’ve been waiting but unsure, please let this be your sign to step up, tell us what you know, and help us bring our beloved mom home so we can celebrate a glorious, miraculous return, or celebrate the beautiful, courageous, courageous and noble life she lived,” Savannah continued.
“Someone knows how to find our mom and bring her home,” the TV host added in her caption.

Investigators are currently poring over more than 10,000 hours of video footage captured in and around Nancy’s Catalina Foothills community, including multiple clips retrieved from a Ring doorbell camera at a home about 2.5 miles from where she lived.
According to the camera owner, the videos show multiple vehicles driving on the road to and from Nancy’s home, Elias and Danielle Stratigulas.
The couple explained in an interview with Fox News that the videos were filmed between 12pm and 6am on February 1, the same day a masked and armed intruder was caught on camera approaching Nancy’s front door.
They further explained that authorities did not initially request their camera footage, noting that they lived about a half-mile outside the 2-mile area being investigated by the FBI and the Pima County Sheriff’s Department.
Retired Pima County Search and Rescue Commander Bob Krygier told Fox News that the video may be the best lead from the investigation, but noted that it likely won’t lead to any new information.
“I think if I had to guess, I would say it’s probably unrelated, so it would be a good thing to follow up,” he said, adding that it would likely take authorities a lot of time to identify the vehicles in the footage and then determine whether any of them took an unusual trip.
But he said should It’s easy to spot any cars that don’t normally travel along that road, as the road isn’t a heavily used track by people who don’t need to travel near Nancy.
“It’s not just a road you stumble upon,” he said. “You have to be very calculated going in there…I think this is probably the best lead we’ve had since Day 1.”
