Rachael is 6. Marshal Steininger, 21 has lived with Roger since his senior year of high school. Steininger is the friend of his son, John, whom Gallaway met while coaching football. He came to live with the Gallaways during his senior year in high school after speaking with his mother and feeling like Sidney was the best place for him to finish school. Roger welcomed him into his home, "as the 6'7" son I never had." Steininger recently took a job in Sidney as well and makes his home here.
