Grief is a very hard thing for anyone of any age to handle. There are about 7 stages that you go through.. and Anger is definitely one of them.
I spent a lot of time being mad at my husband for dying even though I know it's beyond their control.

You just need to be supportive and sensitive to certain trigger dates for her. His Birthday, the date he passed, Father's Day, Holiday's they are all triggers and you do get angry.

I am so proud of you for wanting to help your friend. A year isn't a very long time for her even though it may seem it to you. I still have to deal with the triggers and it's been 4 years
