Carol responds:

Their child grows up loved and happy--with heroic parents who are
fondly remembered by their fellow members and HRH. (Harry, too, had
heroic parents but didn't know it till he was eleven.) Teddy will hear
fond anecdotes about his parents from many people.


Terri:
I was thinking the same thing about some of the people who died.  One major theme of these books has always been that there are things worse than death, and for some charactors I believe that is life.

Teddy grows up with hero's for parents, instead of a shunned father who is ashamed of himself.
Dobby has no place in his own world, he is an outsider for wanting his freedom.
Sirus' personality has no use for life in a non war zone.  He needs excitment and action.  He is so unhappy and now is in the company of his best friend forever.
The twins would always depend on themselves and most likely never really grow up or apart.  Now George has no choice but to become a person, not just a twin
