Vera and Lombard never died. Vera mistakenly shoots (not kills) Lombard thinking he is the killer. Then Wargrave comes and tells the whole story/plan to Vera. He is about to kill her when Lombard gets up and shoots (and kills) Wargrave. This was in the movie. Not the original book.
In Agatha Christie's "And Then There Were None," Vera and Lombard find a confession in a bottle that reveals Lombard's past crime of leaving a group of natives to die. This revelation puts them against each other as Vera realizes Lombard's guilt and questions his morality.
Vera Claythorne gets Philip Lombard to help her drag Dr. Armstrong's body out of the water so it won't wash away. She leans close to him as they are tugging on Armstrong's clothes. As Lombard's concentration is on Armstrong, Vera is able to take the gun out of Lombard's pocket without him noticing.

Phillip Lombard is the guy with the revolver. He is very important because he was the last to die before Vera, who was the muderer.
Vera shot Lombard in "And Then There Were None" because she believed he was the killer and she was the last one left on the island with him. She felt it was a matter of self-defense and survival.

When Vera murders Lombard via BOOM HEARTSHOT!
Charles Lombard is a common name. Please be more specific as to who/what he was.
Lombard is characterized as a confident and resourceful adventurer, who is skilled in survival tactics and capable of taking charge in tense situations. He is portrayed as a rugged and independent individual, known for his bravery and tactical abilities.
Lombard avoids answering Vera's question about the Owens by quickly changing the topic or diverting the conversation away from the subject at hand. He may also use humor or charm to distract Vera from pressing further for an answer. Additionally, Lombard may give vague or non-committal responses to keep the focus away from revealing too much information about the Owens.
After he and Vera Claythorne discover the body of Dr.Armstrong they both suspect each other to be the murderer. Vera tells him to move the body out of the reach of the sea and there she picks his pocket for the revolver. When he realizes she picked his pocket he jumps at her to try and get it back and she shoots him through the heart in midair. (According to the book)
