In 1975, the Catalina Foothills home in Tucson, Arizona, was purchased for $85,000. Nearly five decades later, the property—now valued at close to $1.1 million—became the focus of a heartbreaking investigation. The one-story house, built in 1969 on an acre of desert land, was where “Today” anchor Savannah Guthrie spent her childhood and where her mother, Nancy Guthrie, lived for almost 50 years. It was a place filled with faith, family traditions, and memories of Savannah’s late father, Charles, whose sudden passing in 1988 deeply changed their lives. Despite briefly listing the home for sale in 2007, Nancy chose to remain, holding onto the house that had long been the family’s anchor.
Just months before her disappearance, Savannah returned to Tucson with her mother and sister for a heartfelt television segment celebrating their hometown. They spoke warmly about the area’s beauty, quiet lifestyle, and cherished family moments. But on January 30, 2026, Nancy was last seen at the residence around 9:45 p.m., and authorities later confirmed the property was being treated as a crime scene. Investigators stated she did not leave voluntarily and asked the community for assistance. The home that once symbolized stability and love now stands at the center of an ongoing investigation, leaving many hoping for answers.
