Why is it necessary for a 15 year-old kid to lose the one person who 
was becoming a surrogate father-figure to him?  Are you saying that 
Harry has to learn to deal with death and loss to become stronger?  
Are you saying that Harry has to realize that life is unfair?   
Really, I'm curious why this death makes sense to you.
