1)Death is one of the hardest things in life to deal with. And I am speaking from experience. You have to deal with your emotions. A while ago when my grandmother died I had so many phases. First I broke down, then I tried to numb the pain by not thinking about it, but instead of numbing it;it all just built up inside of me and I eventually couldnt take it anymore so I finally let my emotinos out. So please LET YOUR EMOTIONS ALL OUT.
2)Let your friend know that you are there for her. Both of yall are experiencing pain from this tragic death. So yall should be there for one another. And GET THROUGH IT TOGETHER.
3)Im not a preacher or anything but I am a Christian and I do believe God has a plan. Your friend Courtney is in a place where pain is non-existant and she is looking down on you guys with a smile. There was a reason God let her come home to him. And I know one of those reasons was to make you a stronger person and to give you an oppurtunity to get closer to him. Give him all of your troubles and worries.
4)I am here for you. Whenever you need any type of advice feel free to send me a message. If you ever need to just talk send me a message on my Frappr acount, my display name is "Kevin(careless-fun)"

Second of all, Welcome To The Black PArade I think is a great song to give to your friend. It's by My Chemical Romance in their 4th album "The Black Parade"
The chorus goes "And though you're dead and gone believe me your memory will carry on." and so on.
Just give your friend some space if she needs it and if she needs a shoulder to cry on, be there for her even if it's really random. Just be really supportive and ask her if she wants to talk about it. If she doesn't, let it be. Try to cheer her up by doing things she likes to do. Try not to bring the conversation around death and such.
