I hate to be a downer, but I think DD will die in Book 7 before the 
final battle.  He has to survive through Book 6 to have his talk at 
the end with Harry, but JKR made him appear older in OOTP.  And 
when the final showdown between Harry and LV occurs, Harry has to go 
up against LV alone (hopefully with Godric Gryffindor's sword, 
because, well, I like swords).  For Harry to be a real hero, he 
can't have DD around as a safety net.
