I'm going to hook the new light up to the existing light wires. The jbox for the electric heater that I am removing is in the basement, almost directly below the switches shown above. I am simply going to disconnect the heater, remove those wires and then run new wire up from the switch to the fan. Sound good? Alright, gentlemen, here’s what I’m going to do…

Depends on where the switch is in the line. Middle or end. You’d have an extra neutral or trailing wire in the mix that way. Depends on where the switch is in the line. Middle or end.

Getting rid of the heater wiring. But, you don't have to. Neutral sharing is within code and is done all the time. You're good.
