Nine months into the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie, her daughter and TODAY Show anchor Savannah Guthrie issued a new plea for information on the case.
The NBC News anchor, 54, took to her Instagram page with a photograph of a drawing made by her daughter Vale about her own mom Savannah, which she related to her feelings about her 84-year-old mother's disappearance.

"Found this old drawing from my daughter today. It says so much about how I feel," the mom-of-two penned. "The world goes on, things appear 'normal' - as we try to keep going and be strong, especially for our young kids - but it's not and it never will be."
She continued: "For Annie and Tommy, for Cam and Kristine, for Mike and me and for all of mom's beloved grandchildren: we ache for her, we cry out for answers, we cannot move forward."
Savannah once again issued a call for information on her mother. "We need someone to help us, tell us what you know. Our mom was a light in this world. We want to celebrate her and give her the dignity she deserves. The reward is still available. Please. We are begging you. Please help us."
She ended with a note of gratitude for all those who'd extended their support, writing: "Thank you to all those who have been kind and shown the best of humanity. Join us in praying without ceasing."
