Funeral of Irena Rupińska. Family has a request
The funeral will be held on November 28 at the NMP Częstochowska church in Szumów (Zambrowski County, Podlaskie Voivodeship). An 11:30 memorial service will be followed by interment at the parish cemetery.

Szumów. Death of one of Poland’s richest women and her grandson
Irena Rupińska and her two‑year‑old grandson died in a house fire in Szumów on November 22.
An electric appliance—possibly a humidifier—melted and is suspected to have ignited the blaze; a specialist will determine whether the fault was in the device or its wiring.
Rupińska and her husband were ranked among Poland’s 100 richest in Forbes in 2016 and 2017.
