Marianne: 

Or Sirius used "was" because he was talking about the situation in his 
distant past when he was still connected to the Black family.

In OoP, when Tonks is helping Harry pack, she say's "My mum's got this 
knack of getting stuff to fit itself in neatly..."  That sounds like 
Andromeda is alive.  Which then makes me wonder if she knows the truth 
about Sirius, or if no one has told her, not even Tonks, because of 
the need for secrecy.
