He leaves behind a family who cherished him deeply: his mother, Jamie Shults Noto and stepfather, Marcus Noto; his twin brother, Matt Shults; his sister, Stephanie Shults; and his treasured nieces, Hailey and Reeselyn, alongside his nephew, Austin, who will miss their uncle's playful spirit and endless encouragement Jeff's grandmothers, Joy Kilborn and Barbara Eldridge, will remember him as the grandson who brought so much joy into their lives. His extended family of aunts, uncles, and cousins are left with fond memories of Jeff's laughter and light.
