Thats tough OP, keeping talking it out with friends and family, and posting here was also good. It's quite normal to have lingering feelings of sadness in these type situations and its always good to air it out, don't bottle it up.
I've had the great unfortune of being witness and first person on the schene in a couple of deadly accidents earlier in my life, one car vs. train and the other was a highspeed loss of control that lead to a car wrapping around a metal lightpole. In both cases it was a grizzly schene with massive blood and near decapitation, not something you forget. The best I can tell you is the vivid memories fade pretty fast with time, when they pop up just dismiss them and forget them as quick as you can. The feeling of "maybe I could have done something" happens to everybody even when common logic tells you you did nothing wrong, but that goes away pretty quick.
