According to canon PoA ch 25 pg 247 Harry asks "What - they kill - ?"
"Oh no," said Lupin.  "Much worse than that. You can exist without your soul, you know, as long as your brain and heart are still working.  But you'll have no sense of self anymore, no memory, no...anything.  There's no chance at all of recovery.  You'll just exist.  As an empty shell, and your soul is gone forever...lost."
