Does this sound natural? On this Day of the Dead, I remember my father.?

[Zoli]

On this Day of the Dead, I remember my father.

or should I better use?:

Today, the Day of the Dead, I remember my father.

Your first attempt is fine.

 

[Zoli]

Thank you. Is it okay to use "I'm remembering" instead of "I remember"?

 

[emsr2d2]

Yes.

I would leave the original as it stands- it's fine.
