Savannah Guthrie mourns heartbreaking death with emotional post: ‘All my love’

LEAVE A COMMENT Savannah Guthrie got emotional in a recent post on social media.

The star is currently in mourning due to her friend and "fellow Tucsonian" Dan Hicks passing away at the age of 64 on November 12.

The bittersweet picture featured a throwback of the TODAY star, alongside Dan and Alex Flanagan. He left behind his wife Hannah Storm and their three daughters.

Savannah's overlaid text read: "All my love is with Hannah, their kids and my @nbcsports family. Rest in peace, Dan," with a heart emoji.

Savannah wasn't the only TODAY star who was emotional about the breaking news today.

Craig Melvin was moved to tears during the hit daytime show, while announcing Dan's passing on air.

He revealed to viewers: "Before we go, we wanted to take just a quick moment to remember a dear friend and beloved member of our NBC family – long-time NBC broadcaster Dan Hicks has died at the age of 64."

Craig got choked up while reading a statement in part from Dan's widow Hannah, sharing: "Hannah called her husband endlessly kind, thoughtful, funny – [she] said there are simply no words to express how much he will be missed."

In the full statement on X, formerly Twitter, Hannah revealed: "[The] unexpected passing of Dan following an acute illness."

The NBC broadcaster covered the PGA tour, Notre Dame football games and the Olympics for the network.

NBC Sports shared a release in part, stating: "Far beyond his on-air excellence, Dan was a better person who welcomed teammates with a smile, a joke, or a word of encouragement, sometimes all three in the same sentence. Our heartfelt condolences and love to his wife Hannah and his daughters Hannah, Ellery and Riley."

The PGA Tour also released a heartwarming statement expressing: "The sound of his voice is woven into our memories of the game, and the warmth he brought to the broadcast was matched only by the kindness he showed those around him. Our hearts are with Dan's family, his wife Hannah, and friends, and with our family at NBC Sports. On behalf of everyone at the PGA Tour, we share their sorrow as we mourn someone who meant so much to this game."
