Threads of Life is thrilled to welcome Eugene Gutierrez as our new Executive Director, starting January 15, 2025. 🎉 As a long-time member and volunteer, Eugene brings a deep passion for our mission and a personal connection to workplace tragedy. “Threads of Life has played a major role in the healing journey for myself and my family after my dad’s death,” Eugene says. “I am deeply honoured to step into this new role and continue the vital work of this organization. I am committed to helping Threads of Life grow and expand its reach to serve all who need this support. Together, with our volunteers and partners, we will work and collaborate to bring about a world in which workplace tragedies are unacceptable.” Eugene takes the reins from our inspiring founder, Shirley Hickman, who has led Threads of Life for over 20 years. Together, they’ll ensure a smooth transition as we look toward a bright future together. Join us in welcoming Eugene and thanking Shirley for her incredible legacy.
