You're in charge of them Arks.
Would your Arks depart when Shepard was dead? Why or why not?

Billions of people died in the Reaper War. What's one more stiff?
The Shep is died before Reap Wars went all out.

Well, it does determine whether or not Shepardism makes its way into Andromeda. In the name of the Normandy, the Boo and the Conrad Verner, I should go.
I'm not even sure I understand your question (do you mean between ME1 and 2?) although I don't think it matters. Shepard is irrelevant to the Arks. They should depart when they are ready although it may be tempting to wait for the Reapers to arrive first to prove to everyone on board that they actually need to go. Alternatively if the Arks are not 100% ready but the Reapers arrive, you may have to leave anyway.
Why would Shepard even play a role, indirectly or otherwise? One person's death would cause the entire expedition to happen? That's stupid.
Left before ME3 ending, I'm sure of it.
Hence the state of the Milky Way (and anyone in it) becomes irrelevant.
