Rumors of Hagrid's Death

I've been looking up JKR interviews online concerning the question of 
what house James Potter and the Marauders were in. I've heard JKR 
said they were Griffindor but haven't found which interview yet.

I did find quotes on Hagrid that he's one of JKR's favorite 
character. I found her saying on a radio show called 'Connections' 
that although there will be deaths Hagrid will be around. The 
interview was pre-Goblet and she did let go about the DADA 
teacher's 'magic eye'.

The only basis for Hagrid's death was the Rosie O'Donnell show with 
the movie cast. Richard Harris said he was signed on for Dumbledore 
in all the movies, but Robbie Coltrane said he wasn't.

As far as deaths, we had Cedric and Crouch in Goblet of Fire. If we 
have a big battle with Order of the Phoenix, I could see Lupin 
falling against Wormtail. (Werewolf falls to silver hand.)

I wonder how many students will be kept home from Hogwart's next 
year. Would you send your kid to a school that would be on the front 
line of a war against Valdemort?
