You have me thinking of other ways Sirius can get a wand.  What 
happened to his mothers wand?  Now that she is dead where would her 
wand go?  How about Sirius' brother?  Since he is the last Black he 
could have plenty of wands just lying around.  Neville's wand was 
his fathers. 

Any other opinions on what happens to the wand when a wizard dies?
