The Guthrie family is asking the Arizona community to search their memories for any details that could help police solve the case of their missing mother.

As of Sunday, the search for 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie has entered its seventh week. Determined to find answers, her family shared a public plea with NBC affiliate KVOA of Tucson, thanking local residents for their cooperation and once again imploring them to come forward with any information they may have about the case, no matter how minor.

"We are deeply grateful for the outpouring from neighbors, friends, and the people of Tucson. We are all family now," the Guthrie family told the local news stations in a special report that aired Saturday. "​​We continue to believe it is Tucsonans, and the greater Southern Arizona community, that hold the key to finding resolution in this case. Someone knows something. It's possible a member of this community has information that they do not even realize is significant."

The statement continued, "We hope people search their memories, especially around the key timelines of January 31 and the early morning hours of February 1, as well as the late evening of January 11.  We desperately ask this community for renewed attention to our mom's case — please consult camera footage, journal notes, text messages, observations, or conversations that in retrospect may hold significance."

The family pleaded, "No detail is too small. It may be the key."

Nancy, the mother of *Today* cohost Savannah Guthrie, was last seen outside her Catalina Foothills, Ariz., home the evening of Jan. 31 after being dropped off by family. The following day, she was declared missing after she did not appear at a friend's house for her weekly church meeting.

On Feb. 2, Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos announced that her disappearance was being investigated as a crime and declared her home a crime scene, revealing that traces of Guthrie's blood had been discovered on her porch. Law enforcement described the development as "very concerning."

Since her disappearance, investigators with the Pima County Sheriff's Department and the FBI have teamed up for a large-scale search across the neighborhood where Nancy lived. The FBI have additionally released images of a potential suspect, which showed a masked and gloved individual at her front door on the night of her disappearance.

Seven weeks into the search, authorities have not identified any suspects or persons of interest.

In their Saturday statement, Savannah, her siblings Annie and Camron, and their partners, Michael, Tommaso, and Kristine wrote: "We miss our mom with every breath, and we cannot be in peace until she is home. We cannot grieve; we can only ache and wonder. Our focus is solely on finding her and bringing her home."

They added that they will not be able to "celebrate her beautiful and courageous life" until "she is brought to a final place of rest."

The statement concluded, "Thank you for continuing to pray without ceasing."

Savannah also shared the joint statement to her Instagram page alongside the caption, "Someone knows how to find our mom and bring her home. 1-800-CALL-FBI."

As the Guthries anxiously await more information, they have increased the reward for Nancy's return to $1 million, while also acknowledging that she "may already be gone."

In a Feb. 24 video, Savannah told viewers, "She may have already gone home to the Lord that she loves, and is dancing in heaven with her mom and her dad and with her beloved brother Pierce and with our daddy. If this is what is to be, then we will accept it, but we need to know where she is. We need her to come home."

The sheriff's department and the FBI continue to urge anyone with tips to call 1-800-CALL-FBI.
