A & B are automatically out because they are in future tense while the sentence is pretty much in past tense (ex. Died, years ago = past tense).

As for C & D, I looked up the difference between “Would of” and “Had” and it said that it would be grammatically proper to have an I guess you would call “Before” clause. Don’t count my reasoning behind this. This is what I gathered after searching around for a couple of minutes.
