I think, in the main, JKR's reason for killing people was to kill off people 
who have been more than family to Harry - Sirius and Dumbledore coming to 
mind.  Digory's death occurred because he was in the wrong place at the 
wrong time.  LV didn't bank on their mutual decision to take the cup, thus 
transporting them to the graveyard.  It seems to me that what she's wanting 
to do is to bring Harry to such a point that before any more deaths can 
occur of people close to him, he'll go to any lengths to destroy LV.
