Perhaps Cedric isn't important to the story *yet*, but it will be end up
being important later on in the series (I think I remember reading that
he was coming back as a ghost?). And Diggory wasn't the only one to bite
the big one in GoF. Barty Crouch Sr. could be looked upon as a fairly
important member of the Ministry of Magic, and Barty Crouch Jr. was
equally important to Voldemort's plan. And both of them are now dead :)
