The mirror's not gone, though. JK makes a point of the mirror being smashed in Harry's trunk, and the pieces being covered over . . . this can't be a meaningless element, can it? Could a "reparo" spell fix it? Harry showed he knows how to do this now . . .

Me:
I'll be in line to sign up right behind you, Sarah.  Sirius didn't 
even make my "short list" of possibilities for the death.  I wasn't 
shocked or upset the first time I read it--I was in denial.

Me again:
Agree there, too.  I've lost both my parents and so often wished I 
had a means of communicating with them again.  I was in tears 
reading the whole scene, especially when the mirror broke.  It was 
as if his last "tangible" link with Sirius was gone and, with it, 
his shred of hope.
