I think you can relax, then because this theory isn't watertight <g>.

"Ah, Harry!" said Mr. Weasley, turning from Hermione's parents, whom 
he had been greeting enthusiastically, and who were taking it in 
turns to hug Hermione.  OOP, Scholastic pg. 868

I still think that there's something amiss in Hermione's 
relationship with her parents, but as of the end of OOP, they are 
still very much alive.
