I dunno, Dumbledore was one bright flame, and yet, he was certainly 
old! No pot belly, no baldness, not a boring bone in his body! 
Harry doesn't need to die young to have a terrific legacy. 
I think that, seeing as going out in a "blaze of glory" was 
Dumbledore's thing, Harry (or rather, Harry's story) will have a 
very different end from that of the White Bumblebee.
