Interview Date

Scope and Content
Recording is an interview with Diane Stiglish conducted by Burnaby Village Museum employee Eric Damer, December 4, 2012. Major theme discussed: mushroom farming.
Biographical Notes
F.J. "Jack" Stiglish (originally spelt Stiglich) and his wife bought a Burnaby home in 1943 at Keswick Street, just south of the Lougheed Highway, and took up mushroom farming. By the time their daughter Diane was born five years later in New Westminster, the F.J. Stiglish mushroom farm was an established business. Mushrooms grown at the F.J. Stiglish farm were sent off to Money’s Mushrooms to be packaged and retailed. Later, mushroom growers bought out Money’s to form the Fraser Valley Mushroom Growers Co-op and nominated Jack Stiglish as their first president. Jack then entered a float in the Pacific National Exhibition (PNE) parade and set up a mushroom booth at the fair. In 1969 Jack Stiglish sold the mushroom farm and he and his wife moved next to their trailer court business just down the road. Diane’s brother Allan Stiglich (his family name returned to the original spelling) moved to Langley to open a large mushroom farm of his own which he established with the help of his father. Diane Stiglish began a career with BC Tel.

Newspaper clipping attached to verso of photograph reads: "The Burnaby house that stood in the way of a planned public parking lot for five years, tumbled to the ground within an hour today. A private demolition crew was at work before 8 a.m., tearing down the Cameron Street house expropriated from 59-year-old widow Lillian Mann (right) after a lengthy battle with the municipality of Burnaby. Apart from a stubborn hive of bees which remained to briefly plague the bulldozer operator, the demolition was carried out without a hitch. Mann has moved into a Burnaby townhouse with her daughter."
