MTN News visited with Reid Miller, a retired Great Falls teacher who is hoping to bring a touch of the classroom into home. âI saw on my computer a story about some men that were building desks that are called 'desks for dads,â or 'dads for desks.' So I thought, why not Grandpa for desks too," says Miller, who now lives in Helena.
