I do not believe Jesus intended that passover is replaced with the Lord's Supper. Passover is fulfilled completely. It is clear that Jesus said "as often as you do it", not confined to doing it to remember a specific time frame. Remembering the Lord's death till He come is 365 days a year, not just during Easter

I am familiar with the passages, and though I do not celebrate Easter, I am simply curious about your stance on the issue.

I wouldn't think to do so. Jesus fulfilled passover - He is the Passover Lamb. Passover was old covenant - we are in the New Covenant now. Passover was a shadow of what was to come - which is accomplished to the fullest in Christ. Just curious - do you observe Passover with the Seder?

When I was in the Worldwide Church of God, we observed "Passover"--this is a church that considered itself "Christian", despite the verse in the NT that says Christ our Passover was sacrificed for us, which I think means that people who accept Christ are not required to observe the Feast of Passover because it was a type of Jesus' future sacrifice for Jews and Gentiles alike. I am not slamming you, grafted, since I did this myself. I am only saying that people who accept Christ's sacrifice as the Lamb of God are already observing His Passover for us.

The way we do it at my house is a little different. We don't have a Seder plate, but we go through what each item meant, and we do remove all leaven, and recite what Christ said to do in remembrance of him...breaking unleavened bread and drinking grape juice vs. wine. We also hold a lesson over his sacrifice, and what it means for today and tomorrow.
