"1 in 12 Transgender men and women will be the victim of Transphobic homicide or execution. I know and love at least 12 Transgender poeple in my life. I look at my Transgender friends and ask myself, "Who's next?". Come celebrate and commemorate the lives of the beautiful Transgender people who have been taken from us since last November 20. Be the change. Save lives."

This is what I could find on S.F. as listed on The Bar Area Reporter;http://www.ebar.com/news/article.php...s&article=4353 :
"In San Francisco, several local organizations are joining together to host a Transgender Day of Remembrance event, also on November 20. It takes place from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Asian and Pacific Islander Wellness Center, 730 Polk Street (at Ellis). Alexandra Byerly from the El/La Transgender Latina HIV Prevention Program will be the keynote speaker."

There will also be one in Oakland that is listed on the site linked in the OP, if that is any help.
