'We're pretty sure about the vision, but we'll never find another Hanley'

'We're pretty sure about the vision, but we'll never find another Hanley': "The next year will be hers to find out. The 16-year-old is one of 21 teenagers plucked from the shantytowns of Guatemala City to join a new hospitality training program organized by Safe Passage, a charitable organization with U.S. headquarters in Yarmouth, Maine.
Safe Passage founder Hanley Denning's death from a Jan. 18 traffic accident in Guatemala delayed the program's start by a week, as staff and children fed and educated by the program reeled from the loss of the beloved 36-year-old from Maine.
The board of directors was also unsettled: Could members ever find a worthy replacement to lead the 100 employees and the 400 volunteers Safe Passage gets each year?"
