Elizabeth Haight, loving mother, wife, sister, and aunt, passed away suddenly from health complications on 6 January 2026. She was born 15 February 1971 as the fifth child to Richard William and Audrey Olpin Haight in Salt Lake City, Utah. She graduated from Alta High School after which she attended University of Utah and earned her Bachelor’s Degree in 2006. While working as a pharmacy technician, she married Darryl Eric Morrison on 16 February 2010. Her greatest joys are the two daughters they have together.
While raising their girls, she continued her endeavor as a pharmacy technician and was working 10-hour nights at the University of Utah Medical Center at the time of her passing.
She blossomed as a mother through tirelessly making every holiday and every outing special for her girls. She loved attending their dance recitals, listening to them sing, and attending all of their school activities.
Most recently, she organized her daughters’ birthday celebrations; she made their Halloween extra special with costumes and makeup; plus, their Thanksgiving and Christmas celebrations were quality family time together. These precious memories will be forever cherished.

So sad to hear of Liz's passing. My thoughts and prayers are with my Haight cousins and Liz's family.
Love you guys
I am so sorry to hear about Liz. She was very special to me. She was my kid’s babysitter many years ago. We taught Primary together for a few years before she married. I got the opportunity to babysit Ariel on Mondays after her birth. I love her dearly and pray the peace of Christ to be with Darryl and her sweet girls.
The first time I had the opportunity to meet Elizabeth was when we went to Stake Young Women’s Camp together a few summers ago. Elizabeth wanted to be there with Ariel. So, she got work off, showed up at the church parking lot, all packed for several nights in the mountains, with sack lunches ready to go. I was so impressed because Elizabeth had worked all night at the hospital the night before we left. No one would have ever guessed she had been up all night with the smile she had on her face. She was so excited to be there with her daughter! I will always remember seeing Elizabeth soaking up her special time, in a special place, with Ariel.
Elizabeth, pulled out all the stops again this last summer to get Serena to Camp Tracy with the Primary kids in our ward.
She was the type of person who put her family first. She showed up for each of them in any place, at any time.
Darryl, Ariel, and Serena -Elizabeth loved, and still loves, each of you with all of her heart. Sending all of our love and deepest condolences to each of you during this most difficult time. Elizabeth will truly be missed.
I am so sorry to see that Liz has passed. She always had such a happy attitude and smile. I loved seing her whenever i was at ShopKO getting my mom's medication, so it's been a while. I pray 🙏 you all find peace and comfort at this time. She will surely be missed.
I am blessed to know Ariel and have her in my class. I can only imagine her beauty and spark of creativity comes from her mother, Elizabeth. I would have loved to thank her for raising a wonderful daughter full of light and love. My condolences to the family.
Liz will be deeply missed at the University. She was always so kind and fun to work with. My deepest sympathy to her loved ones during this difficult time.
My condolences to Liz's family. She truly was a joy to work with at the University Hospital inpatient pharmacy. Her presence, positive attitude, and willingness to be a friend to everyone has left big shoes to fill. She is missed.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to Darryl, Serena, and Ariel. While we didn’t know Elizabeth well we know she was loved by her two daughters and Darryl.

Please accept my heartfelt condolences on the passing of Liz. I am Serena’s current teacher and was Ariel’s. In the four years I knew Liz she was a constant presence, attending every conference, staying in frequent contact, and always asking how to help her daughters succeed. I’m grateful for the partnership we shared in their education. Ariel and Serena are wonderful young women; Liz’s care and support helped shape them. My thoughts are with Darryl, Ariel, Serena, and the rest of the family during this difficult time.

Audrey Anne,
I’m so sorry to hear of your loss. I did not know your sister well, but i know you so she must have been amazing. Hugs to you and your family at this difficult time.
Dear Liz,
I’ve been thinking of you and wanted to express how much I admired the way you celebrated your girls every day. You made ordinary moments feel special—turning breakfasts, bedtime, and simple errands into memories they will carry forever. Your patience, consistency, and quiet kindness were the steady heart of your home and the reason your daughters glow with confidence and warmth.
The holidays you created were always extra‑special: thoughtful traditions, joyful gatherings, and little surprises that made each celebration feel magical. Your care—both the big gestures and the small, everyday ones—built a home where your girls always felt loved and cherished.
I felt truly honored that you kept in touch, sending cards that showed how the girls were growing and thriving. Those updates were a gift and a reminder of the thoughtful parent and friend you are.
You will be deeply missed. Your presence, your steady devotion, and the way you made life brighter for your family and everyone who knew you left a mark that will not be forgotten.
With love and gratitude
Liz was a wonderful person and I am so grateful to have known her. Sending peace and comfort to her family and friends!
Liz, my co-worker & my friend, gracious and kind hearted. I will miss her so very much. Liz was always showing me how thankful she was for being her colleague, always helpful in teaching ways to make things easier, and sharing the love she had for her family. My sympathies to you all for the loss of such a beautiful woman
Getting to know Liz was a great blessing. She was sweet strong woman. I’m sorry to the family for this untimely loss.
