If you do want to do something, you could make a donation to a group that her father would have supported (other than the church) in his name. If you want to honor him yourself, it could just go that far. It might get strange if you tell her you went out of your way, by yourself, to do this.

I guess in helping others, just listen. Just "be there." It's awkward for anyone. You don't know what to say because there isn't anything you can say. Just be a good friend. Be attentive. I don't know how close you are, but be aware of the warnings for severe depression.
Be helpful if you can. You mentioned having memories of your lost loved ones. That's all she has, too. I suppose you don't want to be too blatant about it, but invite her to share her memories of laughter and tears.
