He was living with a gigantic snake for a relatively long time. He is written as a highly capable dark wizard with skills beyond his years, creating his own advanced spells as a teenager, easily brewing potions of significant complexity and learning how to fly, ffs. I don't see his portrait or his body in the Great Hall in book canon, and hence I cling to my belief that he lives. Secondary canon on that, be damned.
