I think you may have the right idea.  I do not think that if Sirius
were Avada Kadavra'd previous to falling through the veil, that he
would have had time to react.  All previous mentions of victims simply
have them collapsing. Do we know that the veil is a portal to the
afterlife?  I do not think it is.  I think it may be a doorway to the
future, and that we may be seeing Sirius again.

When Trelawney speaks of looking beyond the veil, she follows it with
into the future.

I do not however think that that is what the title refers to. My
impression is the All Hallows Eve when his parents died, or perhaps a
graveyard.
