The answer

The questioner is not obligated to pray over his sister who passed away a long time ago, because a prayer is not offered over a grave after the funeral prayer has already been performed before burial, unless the deceased was buried without a prayer. The offering of a prayer over a grave is permissible only if a long time has not passed.
