Well, Don's frontispieces always make it seem like Leo and Mike die at a very old age, so I doubt they were murdered or anything. But I'm pretty sure Raph dies much earlier than the rest because he appears much younger than the other turtles in Don's frontispieces for the recently released TPB of Tales Vol. 1. It's still possible that he dies of cancer or some other natural cause, but I'm willing to bet he gets murdered if he does die earlier than the rest.
