Me three. In fact, I'll go so far as to say that Lupin cares more 
about Harry than Sirius did. (IMCO, Sirius half-viewed Harry as 
another James) Also consider this: Lupin has been essentially cast 
out of wizarding society, one of his closest friends betrayed 
another of his closest friends and caused his murder, and framed yet 
another of his closest friends, and indirectly caused THIS friend to 
be murdered.

But he exhibits a quiet dignity, and even grace under pressure that 
was glared by its absence from other characters, especially in OotP.

Now, if something could be done about the homorphus charm...
