On March 3, 2026, we lost a beloved and integral part of our NIIM family. Lisa, our office manager, was tragically informed that her beloved husband...her best friend, the devoted father of their four boys, and the spiritual leader of their home...passed away suddenly.
Jeffrey was a man who gave everything he had in every role he carried. As a husband, he loved faithfully and wholeheartedly. As a father, he led with strength, humility, and unwavering devotion. As a provider and friend, he worked tirelessly and gave completely of himself until the very end. Anyone who knew Jeff knew his steady presence, generous heart, his massive wealth of knowledge, and deep commitment to his family.
Those who know and love Lisa know she shares that same spirit. She is hardworking, selfless, and deeply devoted to her family. Lisa and Jeff were truly made for one another.... partners in faith, in parenting, and in perseverance. To witness their love was to see something rare and beautiful.
In the midst of this unimaginable loss, Lisa and her boys are now facing not only heartbreak, but financial strain following several recent setbacks. We are asking for your support to help cover funeral expenses and to provide a soft landing for this precious family as they begin to navigate life without Jeff.
If you feel led to give, please know that every contribution... no matter the amount...will help lift a burden during this incredibly heavy season. If you are unable to give financially, your prayers, encouragement, and sharing of this page mean just as much.
Let’s surround Lisa and her boys with the same love and generosity that Jeff so freely gave to others.
It is with a truly heavy heart that I am writing this today. Nev… Chelsy Nilson needs your support for Support the Sodano Family After the Sudden Loss of Jeff
