not only but also

Her death hadn't only been terrible for her family, but also for her friends.

上の英文はnot only but alsoの構文が使用されていると思います。使い方に迷うときがあります。。下のように書いたら間違いでしょうか？

Her death had been terrible not only for her families, but also for her friends.

なぜ大過去（？）を使っているのでしょうか。

それは別としても、Her death was terrible not only for her families, but also her friends. で全然問題ないです。
