Your friend lost his chance at living a long and full life - you didn't. In a way, the baton of life has been passed to you. You can honor your friend by remaining strong and trying your best to live a good, clean life - the one he didn't get to live.

When the anniversary comes around, remember some good times with him that will bring a smile to your face. Remember the obstacles you faced and conquered together. Be thankful you had such a good friend in your life, even if it wasn't long enough. Then shake it off and get back to living the life he didn't get to live. I suspect he'd feel horrible if he knew his death caused you not to live yours - even for just one day.
