For more than a decade, loyal viewers of NBC\u2019s \u201cToday\u201d show have come to know Nancy Guthrie<\/a>, the beloved mother of longtime host Savannah Guthrie.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe\u2019s lived a life of integrity and loyalty,\u201d Savannah Guthrie said four years ago, beaming as she paid tribute to her mom on her 80th birthday.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe\u2019s a truth teller, whether you really want to hear the truth or not,\u201d Guthrie said, calling her mom an inspiration and a woman of great of faith.<\/p>\n

On Tuesday, Savannah Guthrie asked for prayers to help find her 84-year-old mother after authorities said they believe she was taken against her will<\/a> over the weekend from the Tucson, Arizona, home where she lives alone.<\/p>\n

Authorities don\u2019t believe the abduction was part of a robbery or kidnapping-for-ransom plot, according to a person familiar with the investigation, who was not authorized to publicly discuss details of the case and spoke to the AP on condition of an anonymity.<\/p>\n

Her disappearance has shaken NBC\u2019s flagship morning show, where Nancy Guthrie made occasional appearances. She once took part in a cooking demonstration and has shown up on the set to surprise her daughter.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor all of us who\u2019ve gotten to know her and love her, it is personal,\u201d an emotional Jenna Bush Hager, one of the show\u2019s hosts said during Tuesday\u2019s broadcast. <\/p>\n

Savannah Guthrie, who was not at the anchor\u2019s desk Tuesday, has described her mom over the years as adventurous, curious and selfless.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe has met unthinkable challenges in her life with grit, without self-pity, with determination and always, always with unshakeable faith,\u201d Savannah Guthrie said in 2022.<\/p>\n

She credited her mom with holding their family together after her father died of a heart attack at age 49, when Savannah Guthrie \u2014 the youngest of three siblings \u2014 was just 16.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen my dad died, our family just hung onto each other for dear life because it was such a shock. We were just trying to figure out how to become a family of four when we\u2019d always been a family of five,\u201d she said on \u201cToday\u201d in 2017. <\/p>\n

The loss of her father, a man Savannah Guthrie described as having a big personality and unshakeable integrity, brought the family closer. <\/p>\n

Both daughters decided to live at home during college and made sure that their mother wasn’t alone on weekends, Savannah Guthrie said. <\/p>\n

\u201cMy mom did such a unique and amazing job to create this foundation for us,\u201d Savannah’s older sister Annie said during an appearance on \u201dToday” nearly a decade ago.<\/p>\n
