Thanks. I guess what I do not get is how bringing the body of the 
person who is already behind the veil would bring the story closure. 
I think the only closure which is important IMO of course is Harry's 
closure and I think, again IMO that Harry can get his closure by 
talking and saying good buy to Sirius when he is there and leave 
Sirius left in peace.

For some reason, and I am sure you did not mean it that way, but 
this is how it feels to me, if Harry brings Sirius body back, it 
would feel to me as if diggging his grave. I would hate that.

But why Harry would not be able to find another way back?
