Tonks:
Oh are you going to sorry that you asked that question.  I can not 
answer in 20 words.

I love DD with all of my heart and soul. Early on I told my friends 
that I wanted to marry him, but they said "he is too old for you", 
and then someone said "I hate to break this to you, but he is a 
fictional character!"

He is my kind of guy.  You will see that when others put him down 
for something (that by the way, isn't his fault!) that I come to the 
discussion as "DD's most loyal and faithful".

I see DD as a role model for the highest and best in the human 
being.  He is the type of person that I hope to be someday.  He is 
the image of Christ.  He is the Saint. He is wise, he is kind, he 
has a great sense humor. He has faith in people and he gives 
everyone a second chance.  He has compassion, he is easy going, he 
is non-judgmental.  He has respect for all people no matter what 
their status in life. He is as JKR says "the epitomy of goodness". 
To me he is the epitomy of Love.  He says that Harry is, but I think 
that DD is too.  

And he is very powerful, which is not the most important thing about 
him, but kind of cool never the less. He is not afraid of the dark. 
He knows what to do, when and how.  He is the wisest and strongest 
wizard, yet a very humble man.  

When he died look at the people who came to show their respect, from 
the very lowly to the highest.  It was like Mother Teresa's funeral.
