You know, I have been wondering myself. What happens when the secret-keeper dies?
I've been wondering that myself.....

there is a new HQ for the Order
It was only temporary that they moved out of Sirius's house; Harry had inherited it but they did not know if there'd be enchantments on it that would disallow a halfblood from owning the house. Presumably once it was confirmed that Harry indeed now owned 12 Grimmauld Place the Order moved their headquarters back there.

Oh yes, that is true. Now I remember. Dumbledore used Kreacher as a test. He obeyed Harry, so Harry owns the house, and the Order moves back, presumably.
About the secret keeper question--I assumed that Dumbledore is still Secret Keeper, even though he is dead.

That begs the question, though.....how do they tell new members of the Order where the headquarters are, if the secret-keeper is dead?Guess it's another thing we'll just have to speculate about and hope that we get an actual answer to.
Perhaps it is impossible, now that the Secret Keeper is dead? Or perhaps Harry is the new Secret Keeper, seeing as he is the new owner of the house?
Or maybe there was a backup Secret Keeper, in case of an event happening like this?
Hmm... it all makes me think, but I guess we can only speculate, seeing as there is now hard evidence of what happens to a Secret Keeper once they die...
I have one question: Was Sirius Secret Keeper for James and Lily Potter's whereabouts?
