I don't want to pretend like we were best friends but he's someone that I gained inspiration from at a time in my career and he was just a great dude. I as well as other people NEVER would have thought he'd be the one to do it.

I imagine that it's hard to process, but his family is really going through it now. Just reach out to them with a Condolences card, and offer whatever help you can to them.
When you stop to think of what they're going through, your pain is miniscule by comparison.

I’m going through this now. My cousin killed himself in august and we been close our whole lives. Tbh what’s making me ok with it is that I like to say he’s lucky cause he gets to be with grandma again (she died in 2009).
Some days you forget about it, some days it’s all you can think about. It was hard to take at first but now I don’t even have anymore tears to cry. When I think about it and it feels like I’m to cry, nothing happens anymore.
But you gotta live ya life my boy and make your homie proud.

Yep.
That they took that path means they were going through something painful that they got tired of.
Now they aren't.
Just be happy they don't have that pain anymore.
I’ve never dealt with it but what could you do now? Nothing …
The most you can do is be there for those who are still living. Try to be a better listener. Try to be more kind. Try to notice when someone is sad or not fitting in. Try not to be inconsiderate to others. Maybe the friends you make or the friendships that you strengthen will prevent this from happening again.

It’s hard.
Haven’t had anyone close to me take their own lives. Maybe one or two people that i knew somewhat. Definitely impacts the community they were in.
An ex once described it to me (she had a friend that had taken their own life) as the person suffering sort of passing the pain to others, because the person usually is suffering in some sort of hidden way.
Only way I can think is to form stronger or closer relationships within the group that was hurt by the loss.
Talking for sure helps
