>>>And the book ends with an open-casket funeral,...<<<<

I don't know why, but by the time I finished reading this, I was giggling
-- did you mean this to be tongue-in-cheek?

Since JKR seems to be following a lot of historical fairy-tale fantasy
conventions, perhaps we need only look to precedent for what will
happen to Harry. Perhaps he will sail off to the "Land Beyond" with
Dumbledore/Merlin, or go to wait in Valhalla until he is called to fight
Evil again, or something equally mythical. That would leave the avenue
open for future Harry books, in case JKR changes her mind and wants to
continue the series.
