Sudden death of a dear friend

I need your help. One of my dear friends committed suicide recently and I am putting together a special memorial service for all of her friends to get together and pay our respects. the service will be short and allow each of us to say a few words either about her or to her- but I need suggestions. I loved her more than words can explain and want it to be perfect and beautiful. I am looking for any suggestions on songs that can be played during the service or a poem that reassures that she is free from hurt and happy where she is-That she no longer suffers. Thank you in advance for your help

My brother od'd a couple years ago. We played songbird by Fleetwood Mac. It is a beautiful song. It is on the rumors album. Everbody hurts by R.E.M. is also good. Into the Mystic by Van Morrison. Wish you were here by Pink Floyd. Daniel by Elton John. Hope that helps. Sorry about your loss.

my brother died a few years ago, his three friends took on the eulogy, each with his own favorite story of their friendship, a memorable time they shared. All three happened to be humorous (the time they almost burned my parents house down and put the chimney fire out by throwing pails of water down it.) the laughter put us all at ease and reminded us of what a great life he had, even if it was too short. tell what she brought to your life, you don't need to use someone else's words. Free Fallin by Tom Petty is the song I played.
