For the tenth year in a row teachers, administrators, and staff from Webster Thomas High School and West Irondequoit High School will compete in a basketball game remembering Adam Milne to raise money for the Leukemia Lymphoma Society. The game is scheduled for Friday, March 4, at 7 p.m. at Irondequoit High School. Adam was a social studies teacher at Irondequoit High School who was married to a teacher from Webster for three months, until he passed away of leukemia. Adam made a profound impact on his students and colleagues, living his motto, “Go Forth and Spread Joy.” Like most charity basketball games, you’ll find quite a mix of talented, experienced, athleti…
