If you are wanting to do something in memory of your sister but, in a personal manner perhaps writing her a letter. Then read it outloud and burn it. Or read it and tie it to a balloon and let it float away.
If you are wanting to do something more in her honor.....try donating your time to a charity. It's that time of year and sometimes helping those who are facing hardships makes you feel better. Maybe you will be that one kind person that will make the difference in someone else's life who feel they have no solution in life left. Take care.

I don't know, I am not at that point where I would be ready to celebrate it. Sorry.

I would have a memorial for her, perhaps an event that raises funds to give to a charity, that would honor her. As for yourself, you may consider building a memory album or box. My family put together a treasure chest of things that belong/remind us of my dh. I can go to the chest and reflect on memories, in time I can see the grandkids doing this also. You will come up with an idea and know that it is the right choice. Liz

First you would have to ask yourself what would your sister want you to do? I suspect she would not want you to change your plans....so....throw a party...in her honor...make it clear to guests....this is a memorial slash party for her and always will be on that date ....celebrate the life...and laugh at what is missed...the phone calls, the conversations, the who I used to date conversations....smile....do not dwell on the what could've been...that's gone...but have FUN with the memories and with whom she may have left behind...a beloved pet, children....CELEBRATE.....it's the only way to get through....good luck and God Bless!

Casmira is right...as is everyone else...these are all great ideas.I need to copy paste tehm in my folder to keep for when it comes time to "do something" for Mommy.

I had a Celebration of Life ceremony instead of a funeral for Mommy after she passed.

I was going to have it ofr her when she got out of the hospital but she never made it.

Everyone loved the idea of celebrating her life.

I hope these ideas help you to honor your sister. You may have to choose something from all the ideas...

november 26 is the day last year that my son left his body behind. from now on i consider that his new birthday, and i will have a dinner at my house that night, with his friends here and his brothers, and i will have helium balloons here for us all to let go of and i am making a beautiful angel cake for him. i have to do something that day, so i will make it a day to celebrate his new birth . as far as i am concerned, he is way more alive then i am now that he is free of his body, so he deserves a celebration. i would rather do that on that day then sit in a dark room and cry, which is usually what i do.

Thank you all for being supportive. I appreciate each one of you,God keep and make His face shine on you. Have a great day.

I would celbrate her life. It is important to do that. Have a group of people get together and celebrate who she was.
