Did Hitler die at the end of the war?

Adolf Hitler committed suicide on April 30, 1945. Germany surrendered, ending the war in Europe, on May 8, 1945. This means that Hitler died nine days prior to the war's end.

To complicate it a bit further, Japan officially surrendered on September 2, 1945, and this fully ended World War II. That surrender came just over four months after Hitler's death.
