So the Harry Potter series has ended, we know that Voldemort dies, Harry and Ginny get together, Ron and Hermione get together, Neville marries Hannah and works at Hogwarts, so there isn't anything else that we need to know...right??? We all know that is wrong...we don't know everything, and we may never know, but what is your biggest question from the HP series?? Please make sure to explain your reasoning.

Albus Severus...you were named for two headmasters of Hogwarts. One of them was a Slytherin and he was probably the bravest man I ever knew." Harry Potter

I agree. I believe the people who appeared to Harry were the ones he most wanted to have with him, and Tonks wasn't mentioned, nor anything else about what goes on in the afterlife, because the focus was on Harry's immediate needs.

Going back to the question of how the Potters defied Voldemort, I, too, had the idea that they (and the Longbottoms as well) must have done three very specific and heroic things. After hearing what the author had to say about it, however, I'm now wondering if she really did have anything specific in mind. I hope so, and I hope we'll hear more about it some day!
