In 1998, she married Douglas Melchior – the love of her life. In 2000 their first child was born, Carter Jacob and in 2005, their second son was born, Carson James. She enjoyed watching her boys play basketball, football, baseball and golf along with her husband, parents, mother-in-law and other family and friends. This was her passion. Jackie was a dedicated mother who loved spending time with her boys. Doug was the sunshine of her life, and they built a beautiful life and home for their sons.

Jackie loved to get up early, go to the gym or run the streets of Olathe, training for many 5K and 10K races and marathons including three Boston Marathons. She was an elite athlete who loved the thrill of competition. In recent years, she had dedicated her training to weightlifting and competing in Figure Competitions.
