Did Quirrel actually die in the book?  I know he did in the movie 
but... I do not remember Quirrel actually dying... I thought he was 
in the hospital wing with Harry?  Am I reading too much fanfiction?

In GoF, Voldemort says (US paperback,p.654) "the servant died when I 
left his body."  Which could mean that he did die.  Or that, like 
Richelle says, he "left Quirrell to die"

No, he was not in the hospital wing with Harry.  All we really know 
about Quirrell is that Dumbledore tells Harry in the hospital wing 
that Voldemort "left Quirrell to die; he shows as little mercy to his 
followers as his enemies."  I don't remember him being mentioned 
again.  It certainly implies that Quirrell died when Voldemort left 
his body.

Yes, it clearly IMPLIES that.  *evil grin*  Voldemort may have left 
Quirrell for dead...but does that mean that he necessarily died?  I 
don't really believe that he somehow got up and walked away, I mean 
how could he have managed that without anyone noticing?  But then, 
Crouch Jr impersonated Moody (a good friend of Dumbledore's) for a 
year...so although I find it unlikely that Quirrell is still out 
there, I would definitely not rule out the possibility.  Look what 
happened last time we assumed someone was dead *coughPettigrewcough*
