i miss her so much. i just do it for her. reporter: he is not a man that seeks attention come -- attention, but one who muster the strength to meet us. the past two decades has not been easy without his little sister, betty. >> it has been 20 years of anguish and pain, and daily reminders. the remembrance is hard for me and our family. reporter: remembrance on september 11, 2001, when betty, along with her crew, left boston logan, when 15 minutes en route to los angeles -- >> there is somebody in business class, we can't breathe. somebody has mace or something.

reporter: betty was the first to make contact with american and -- airlines. little did she or most on board no their fate as the first plane to crash into the world trade center. >> what strikes me so much listening to that phone call is betty's called, her composure and steadiness. where does she get that from? >> that is just her. reporter: more than 700 miles away, vanessa, based in raleigh, north carolina as an american airlines agent. she was the first person on the ground notified of the terror aboard flight 11. >> it is ok, we are landing. we are making the turn to land. the last thing she set on the phone call to me was, please pray for us. i lost it. reporter: vanessa sat down for

an exclusive interview with our sister station wtvd. >> betty ong, to me, was the hero. i still get emotional, so bear with me. she was the hero, not me. >> that is the first time i have heard those words from vanessa, the last contact to her back in 2001 with a letter from her. she was a very private person, did not want to be contacted or discuss anything. to know now 20 years later in her tribute to betty and all the others, it is very meaningful and i appreciate it, the fact you are able to get a hold of her and tell us this. reporter: betty's heroism was recognized by the 9/11 commission a locally, by this one who worked tirelessly to

have this community center named after her and the betty ong foundation. it is where she grew up and yearned to leave. >> betty had an urge to travel, see the world. that is why she became a flight attendant. reporter: as they remember their betty, they hope her life can serve a purpose for all who remember 9/11. >> what i would like the world to know, especially in these times of divisiveness and hatred for each other by a lot of people, that the goodness of the september 11 aftermath is so positive. reporter: dion lim abc7 news. ama: more understanding, more humanity. i am so incredibly grateful to harry for opening up and sharing his memories of betty with us. he will be speaking at a ceremony tomorrow in san

francisco's mission bay neighborhood. he said the 20 year anniversary has been stressful. he looks forward to taking time away soon. dan: so understandable. this brings back so many difficult memories. members of san francisco's zion church in vacaville writing letters of gratitude to military service members devoting their lives to protecting our country, in observance of the september 11 anniversary. it is part of the church's connecting to the community. with the fall of afghanistan, writing letters show appreciation those who served after the terror attacks in 2001. >> especially being in the army or air force or armed services, it is difficult, all the different things they faced, and hardships. they may be feel alone or that the community is not behind them sometimes, but we want to let them know we are thankful for

all of their hard work and sacrifice. dan: church volunteers organized more than 100 letters to send this weekend. there are several events around the bay area to mark the anniversary of 9/11. we have them on our website. go to abc7news.com to see what is happening where you leave -- live. tomorrow morning, abc news will air a special program, 9/11 20 years later, america remembers." ama: in the past 24 hours we have witnessed weather we have not seen for a long time in the bay area. [rain sounds] ama: do you even recognize the sound? many places got rain, some, lightning. now we are looking at partly cloudy skies. this is the view atop mount tam. spencer christian joins us.

where is this ride taking us? spencer: we don't even know. it was so unusual. not just for this time of year, but for san francisco, period, this entire year to have any rain, especially downpours like that. this is measurable rain. santa rosa had 4/100ths of an inch. we will take what we can get. vacaville, 5/100ths of an inch. trace amounts in livermore and oakland. this system is pushing all the moisture in the atmosphere to our east. we have a clearing pattern coming our way. how clear for how long i will have the answers to a little later. dan: today is world suicide prevention day. on this day mental health advocates and professionals are delivering the same message. it is ok not to be ok. dustin dorsey spoke with a

doctor about being an ally for those who are struggling. >> with a swing of the bat, may, former minor-league or took a sting -- swing at the stigma of mental health. he works to change the life of others as a mental health advocate for the giants. >> i realized it will never go completely away, but doing a better job, every time i go through depression phases. i rely on my support system. reporter: his story shows mental health struggles can impact everyone. on september 10 we recognize suicide prevention day. in 2021, it is especially important. >> with this pandemic, nothing we anticipated in our lifetime, and other stressors, these can be stress factors for worsening mental health. reporter: there is an increase

of individuals without seeking mental health help reporting suicidal thoughts and behaviors. while youth suicide attempt are down, it is important to notice warning signs like reckless behavior, sudden mood changes, and a feeling of no sense of purpose. >> we know that suicide, especially in youth, is an important issue. it is one of the number one causes of death in our youth and for adults as well. it is preventable to read one of the best ways to prevent it is by talking to each other and being able to detect mental health problems early. reporter: doctors say help is out there for those dealing with the struggle. it is ok to not be ok. dustin dorsey abc7 news. dan: please remember, if you or someone you know is in crisis, you can find organizations that offer help and hope by going to abc7news.com/takeaction.

ama: optimism into the final weekend before california's recall election. who is confident they will prevai ♪ ♪ dry eye symptoms keep driving you crazy? inflammation in your eye might be to blame. [inflammation] let's kick ken's ache and burn into gear! over the counter eye drops typically work by lubricating your eyes and may provide temporary relief. those drops will probably pass right by me. xiidra works differently, targeting inflammation that can cause dry eye disease.

ama: starting this weekend, there will be extra manpower to keep the streets of oakland safe. they will reduce dangerous driving on the high injury corridors. chp will also crackdown on illegal sideshows for the rest of september. last month, gavin newsom granted the request for additional patrols. dan: the countdown clock shows

three days and change before the polls open for california's recall election. this weekend, more early locations are opening in several counties including santa clara, solano counties. let's talk about the latest polls and what they show. will governor newsom stay california's governor? >> according to a new berkeley study it seems the answer is yes. the polls show 60% of voters said they would vote no on the recall compared to 39% that said they would vote yes. as democrats go into tuesday feeling confident, some republicans are sowing the seeds for claiming voter fraud if it fails. three days to go until the recall election and today governor newsom and his partner were in san francisco to cast their ballots. while mail-in ballots have been sent to every registered voter, polling places will be open to

drop off of -- drop off ballots. newsom is projecting confidence, largely because of polls like this one from the berkeley institute, which shows he has gained significant ground in the past month. a new paul released today shows 60% of voters plan devote no on the recall. nearly 39% are in favor of it. she believes the recall has a shot at passing and people should not discount how angry californians are at the governor. >> i don't think there is a consultant in the business for five minutes who wants to predict what will happen tuesday. reporter: as election day nears, one is preparing for a recall loss. he claimed there were shenanigans in the voting process and told reporters he set up a voter integrity board, set up of lawyers. ready to report fraud >> there very well may be

shenanigans. reporter: president trump also falsely suggested voter fraud in the recall election. mr. trump: the one thing they are good at his rigging elections. r --reporter: republicans and the former president for making this claim. >> four days out and they are claiming election fraud. it is not surprising, but disappointing. reporter: dunsmore says that she hopes they don't subscribe to this claim. >> it suppresses the votes. do not do it. put your ballot in the mail. reporter: both sides are ramping up of the vote effort, especially targeting young people, who have been slow to turn in ballots. neither have announced campaign schedules for the weekend, but monday newsom will be joined at a campaign event with president joe biden.

joining me to break this down is abc7 insider, phil mateer. let's talk about potential voter fraud. what do you make of that? >> it has become a tradition in american politics whenever there is a close race to raise allegations about shenanigans or voter fraud, whether it was hanging chads in the bush v gore race for presidency, or russian interference in trump v clinton. it is the way people respond when they don't come out the winner. it is hard to prove and chances are it does not happen often. the way our system is set up, county by county, the chance of significant voter fraud are minimal. there are mistakes, they will be made. if it is close, every vote gets examined twice. reporter: dunsmore said

make sure there is a recount if it is a close race. i want to ask you about the polls. today they have shown a huge shift for governor newsom since july. the same poll in july had 50% of voters saying they would say no. now it is up to 60%. newsom has turned it around. >> he has. he can thank in part his republican opposition so on the conservative part that it is a foil he can point to and say, look, if larry elder is elected the new governor of california, we will be like texas and florida in terms of handling covid. you will see vaccine mandates go away, mask mandates go away. that was a pivot point. the second thing is the power of $80 million of television, radio and internet ads the newsom campaign has swamped the state with in the past couple of weeks.

this is an unseen, unprecedented , and has helped wake up democratic voters. what will the effect be on latino voters and other minority voters that traditionally have been democratic strong points? are they changing, as well? reporter: that is something we will be watching for on tuesday, what will the latino vote do? latino voters are not monolithic, but it will be interesting to see, do they turn out and vote? and what implications are for the midterms if they don't come out in the numbers they usually might do. >> it will have national implications one way or the other. to have even a close recall to this extent in a deep blue state, everybody is watching see if there is any shift going on nationally. california will be in the center of that. reporter: absolutely it will.

ama: i think things have come down. dan: what a night we had. spencer: no lightning, no thunder. ama: snoozer. spencer: between 125 and 1 confirmed lightning strikes overnight. that is pretty unusual in the bay area, especially this time of year. brisk and breezy conditions. not gusty, just a little breezy with a cooling onshore flow. 15 miles per hour winds in most locations. you see low clouds forming from the coastal parts of san francisco. it is currently 60 in the city, 60 c in oakland. low 70's at mountain view and san jose. 59 at pacifica.

the view from mount am, a few low clouds trickling through the golden gate to push out over the bay. we have a redeveloping marine layer. napa, 77. 82,, fairfield. concorde 80. 78 in livermore. here is a look at approaching clouds. fog along the coast overnight and pushing over the bay. a mild pattern this weekend. turning warmer inland sunday into tuesday. not a heat wave, just warmer. overnight, we can expect this pattern. expanding low clouds pushing locally out across the bay. we will see a few high clouds through the early part of the day tomorrow. we will call it filtered sunshine for most of the day. sunnier in the south, a few clouds of north. overnight low temperatures in the mid-50's, under clear skies

inland and partly cloudy at the coast. 63 at half moon bay tomorrow. 65 in san francisco. 83 in santa rosa. inland east bay was sizzling early this week, we will see highs in the mid to upper 80's. i of 79 in san -- a high of 7 77 in san jose. maximum temperature indicator, sunday a warm up to low 90's in the inland east bay. low to mid 90's on m m m our inland east bay neighborhoods. tuesday, the same pattern. it is a warm up, but not a heat wave. before we get to the seven day, let me show you the four days of air quality. good to moderate the next four days for all of the bay area. now the accuweather 7 day forecast. a mild to warm day.

warming up to mid 90's sunday, monday, and tuesday. it will be warm, but it is not a heat wave. a sharp drop in temperatures wednesday. cool, breezy weather next week. dan: still to come, we celebrate abc7 news reporter wayne freedman as he retires. >> what do you want to know about him? ama: he can tell you. he has 54 of them.

my name is on the front. but... i am more proud of the back. siggis: 40% less sugar, and more protein than the leading greek yogurt. dan: he really is a legend, a giant in journalism. after 50 years in the business, 30 of them at abc7, reporter wayne freedman is retiring. [applause] ama: that applause. he deserves it. we gathered in the newsroom and by zoom today to honor wayne and his amazing career. we presented wayne with a proclamation, declaring wayne freedman day today in san francisco.

wayne got a chance to hear what he has meant all of us, his friends and colleagues, past present, like this photographer, who worked alongside wayne. >> when i started here five years ago, i was told i would be working with wayne. i don't want to say i was warned, but i was told he could be difficult, temperamental, demanding, and all of those things turned out to be absolutely true. [laughter] but he never asked me to do anything that he was not willing to do. dan: absolutely. at this year's emmy awards, wayne received the governor's ward, the highest award they can bestow. ama: the lifetime achievement ward is well-deserved. stephanie sierra gives us a look at wayne's career. wayne: this is death, i am dying. let me take that back, they are going to get a minute 45.

i don't think they will get a story. reporter: after 40 minutes of -- after 30 years ofou t s yn it is so deep that lying here i am still not touching the bottom of this crack. that is a deep crack. wayne: storytelling is not complicated, you just need to work with what you find. >> the continuing struggle between man and nature. flies, all over her apartment. peggy hawkins has declared war. wayne: you give it context. maybe find an expert. as the weather cools, the flies will leave. but when? until whenever that is, peggy hawkins says that she will get plenty of exercise. >> this book of yours, have you actually read it? wayne: yeah. i wrote it a couple hundred times. you don't write a book once.

i am basically teaching myself. >> if we could genetically engineer a television news reporter, you're probably looking at it. wayne's mother was an actress and dancer on broadway and in the movies. she met his father in the early years of live television and his father helped invent and pioneer the first live handheld cameras for news and sports. wayne first appeared on tv at 10 days old. wayne: the reason i got on the news is, that my dad once said to me son, if you want to go into television, go into the news. they will never cancel the news. so far they have not. the first byline at 14 years old. first recording job, 1979, louisville. i don't like hot days like this, do you? do you ever think about wintertime? ever wish you could go back?

through the magic of television -- 27 degrees below zero, wind chill. in 1981, kron hirediredirediredd in 1988, cbs news. dream job, live in san francisco, do one five-minute story a week? >> so what happened? wayne: never get too confident, that is what happened. turns out they sold cbs, then laid a bunch of people off and i was one of them. i went from being on top of the world feeling like the world was on top of me. then a couple of really good things happened. my wife married me, even though i did not have a job. and abc7 lifted me up. you want to travel route 66? go.

they have made evening promises in neon. even today, it is filled with hotels, most of which look quite charming, until you spend a night in one. >> it is 30 years now at abc7 and counting. they sent him to russia alone during the second revolution. after 9/11, across the nation to ground zero by train, twice. wayne: my job back then was to find the stuff you did not see on the regular evening news, like revisiting florence, oregon for the exploding whale. kapow! right on top of the 1969 oldsmobile. then, this thing called youtube came along and pretty much killed the traditional television news feature story. don't get too comfortable. we tried and experiment, no video, no mics, just me and a

still camera following high school students. reporter: he applied those tools to hard news. wayne: from below today, it was a lot like watching ants. people peered through binoculars with this effort to reach distressed climbers. reporter: his 52 emmy awards include 14 for writing and another 14 for on writing -- on air writing and another as a journalist. wayne: i do not feel comfortable talking about these things. >> where are all these enemies -- emmys? wayne: i put them away. >> which one is your favorite? wayne: there was a story called tv strikes back. when the san francisco examiner

ran a campaign saying tv news was lightweight compared to newspapers, we went after them. what do you know, it still has more substance. you can find your answer in seven seconds. we ripped them up, literally. >> after you watch television, does it come off on your hands? when they said all news people were like canon barbie -- ken and barbie, we showed them. >> make them look this way. wayne: and, we had another weapon. we have a helicopter, they don't. reporter: and yes, after all this,. every story, he still worries. wayne: 1:45, maybe 1:44

dan: who is that guy? it is this guy, this amazing fella joining us one last time live. i know you have a lot to say. wayne: i do, but typical television news, we don't have a lot of time. i would say there is one change from the end of that story when i said i was stressed. leaving abc7 and this career which has been a calling, i will finally have time to relax. television news looks easy and glamorous, but it is not. everyone in this newsroom begins the day with a blank sheet of paper and time to fill. we try to make it worth your valuable time. the easiest thing would be to stay and meet those daily deadlines. leaving will be difficult and forced me to find a new comfort zone, but that is how we grow. it is almost a cliché for those who leave to thank the viewers

for their trust and honesty, but it happens to be true. thank you. i always wanted to live in the bay area. i did for 40 years. i always wanted to be a reporter. i did for 40 years. it has been a blessing. i have had a front row seat to bay area history. it has been my pleasure, thank you. dan: it has been our pleasure and honor to work with you. you have had a hall of fame career unlike any other. ama: i loved what you said, you work with what you find. you found so much in people every day. it has been remarkable to see your work. wayne: i think you hav think yoh into every story with an open mind. we don't go in with a set agenda. we see what we find, then build a story. that is the way it ought to be done and that is how we tried to do it.

the richness of this area, how can you miss? dan: bravo and congratulations dan: bravo and congratulations on a terri (“lovely day” instrumental) my heart failure diagnosis changed my priorities. i want time for the people i love. my heart doesn't pump enough blood so my doctor gave me farxiga. it helps my heart do its job better. farxiga helps keep me living life and out of the hospital for heart failure. do not take if allergic to farxiga. symptoms of a serious allergic reaction include rash, swelling, difficulty breathing or swallowing. stop taking and seek medical help right away. tell your doctor right away if you have red color in urine or pain while you urinate, or a genital area infection since a rare but serious genital infection may be life-threatening. do not take farxiga if you have severe kidney problems or are on dialysis. other serious side effects include dehydration, sudden kidney problems genital yeast and bacterial infections in women and men, urinary tract infections, and low blood sugar. stop taking farxiga and call your doctor right away if you have symptoms of ketoacidosis which is serious and may lead to death. more time with her?

weather. will it be as exciting as last night? dan: that is the question spencer christian has been asked. spencer: no more lightning strikes or thunder or downpours. we have good air quality. green dots all over the bay. that is a good thing. overnight, mostly clear skies. low clouds along the coastline. overnight low temperatures in the mid-50's. tomorrow after low clouds retreat to the coast, highs ranging from low 60's at the coastal low and mid 70's around the bay shoreline to mid 80's in the lowest locations. a warm up sunday through tuesday with inland areas seeing high temperatures in the mid-90's. that will not last long. we will cool down to 80's inland again starting wednesday next week. ama: sports director larry beil has the latest in sports. >> returning to chicago as a

giant for the first time. plus, steph curry puts his face on the line for a phil micke

i may not be as pretty. i'm not a cable tv personality or an entertainer like larry. i'm the businessman, the only cpa running for gov ernor. california is a mismanaged mess. taxes, cost of living, water, wildfires, homelessness. these aren't political issues; they're readily fixable management issues. career politicians? celebrities? i've solved problems all my life. let's fix this great state! welcome to the place where the aroma of authenticity turns into the scent of home. where cacique inspires you to add your own flair. and the warmth of friends and family is in every bite. cacique. your auténtico awaits. >> abc7 sports presented by

river rock casino. larry: a homecoming for kris bryant. the man himself won an mvp with the cubs, helped them win the world series for the first time since 1908, and in his first time at the visitor side on wrigley, he got lots. >> i never set foot on that side. i had no idea where i was going. with all these cameras in my face, i tried to play it off like i knew what i was doing. larry: the cubs with a terrific video tribute to bryant pregame. they gave him a flag and is number 17 from a hand-operated scoreboard in the outfield. bryant 1-3 and scored a run. evan longoria crushes one. the giants take a 3-1 lead. still in the seventh, brandon belt, opposite field. 5-1. you can see the duct taped c, i

am the captain now. the best double play of the year, right there. brandon crawford, backhand flip to tommy la stella. the giants get there win, 6-1. they are now ahead of the dodgers and the a's are just underway with the rangers. the 49ers sunday in detroit. the defensive lineman had knee problems in college and they are still a problem. he is doubtful for sunday, but george kimmell -- george kittle, fired up and ready to go. with the niners opening in deng the following week in philly, they will stay east. they are starting with a 10 day road trip. and kittle has high expectations. >> our expectations, go into detroit, take it one day at a time. just take it one week at a time, focus on that.

feels more like a football season. you have fans, camaraderie. we excel at that here at the 49ers. i am excited to play a football game with these guys. >> are you ready? >> i'm ready. [laughter] >> thank you. my heart skipped a beat. larry: with phil mickelson at the charity event, it was held to benefit staff at the eat, learn, play foundation. we will have more about that after the game tonight. phil had one thing to say before he went -- >> congrats, wayne. larry: even phil is a wayne freedman fan. he had the u.s. open trophy right this item. if i won it, i would have it

beside me. actually, i would have a staff member carry it. i have one question for him. i don't know if we have time, but we will see. ama: that is a tease. coming up tonight on abc7 at 8:00, shark tank, followed at 9:00 by 20/20, and the correspondents report on the covid-19 outbreak. covid-19 outbreak. don't miss abc7 to be a thriver with metastatic breast cancer means asking for what we want, and need... and we need more time. so, we want kisqali. living longer is possible and proven with kisqali when taken with a nonsteroidal aromatase inhibitor in premenopausal women with hr+, her2- metastatic breast cancer. kisqali is a pill that's significantly more effective at delaying disease progression versus a nonsteroidal aromatase inhibitor alone. kisqali can cause lung problems or an abnormal heartbeat, which can lead to death. it can cause serious skin reactions, liver problems, and low white blood cell counts that may result in severe infections. tell your doctor right away

if you have new or worsening symptoms, including breathing problems, cough, chest pain, a change in your heartbeat, dizziness, yellowing of the skin or eyes, dark urine, tiredness, loss of appetite, abdomen pain, bleeding, bruising, fever, chills, or other symptoms of an infection, a severe or worsening rash, are or plan to become pregnant, or breastfeeding. avoid grapefruit during treatment. kisqali is not approved for use with tamoxifen. ask your doctor about living longer with kisqali. california, did you know our homes share power?

kisqali is not approved for use with tamoxifen. but when we try to stay cool in a heat wave our supply is pushed to the limit. but you have the power to keep us up and running! “i do?” yup, we all do! with flex alerts. they notify us when to shift our energy use if our power supply is stretched. so from pre-cooling our homes, to using less energy from 4-9pm, together, let's flex our power to save our power. sign up for flex alerts today.

dan: finally tonight, a few thoughts about what really matters. as you saw it earlier, we are saying farewell to one of our beloved colleagues, someone you have allowed into your homes each evening for 30 years here at abc7. wayne freedman is one of the best reporters and storytellers in america. it is not hyperbole, it is absolutely true. with 54 emmys to his name, wayne has enjoyed a hall of fame career. far beyond the accolades, wayne takes deep pride in knowing he made a difference. he truly has been a witness to history, an honest reporter, brilliant storyteller, and demand that served the best interest of our profession. great journalism has been his life's work. he made our industry better and those of us privileged enough to do this job better, too. in an industry and culture that

has changed dramatically in the decades wayne has been on the air, he has been a stabilizing force, a reporter you can depend on. we are blessed with many of those here, but none quite like wayne. we will move forward, and wayne will, too. with our deepest gratitude and congratulations. now a little fun at wayne's expense and he has no idea we are doing this. as reporters, all of us have our idiosyncrasies, our unique ways of getting the job done. this is not wayne attempting to fly, but his singular way of letting the editor of his report to know which take of his stand to use. wayne: got one, waving my arms. i'm waving my arms. i'm waving my arms to say that is a good one. 3, 2, 1. hello, friends. we are telling you about science. today, airplanes, big, winged birds, flying through the air.

i'm waving my arms. i'm waving my arms. [laughter] wait, wait. okay. that is better. we are done. >> thank god. wayne: do you remember the august lightning siege? >> wave your bloody arms. [laughter] i'm waving my arms. that is it, the last one. what did you think about that? [laughter] ama: i love watching wayne watch that. wayne: trying to land the plane? dan: why did you do that, just to let the editor know this is the take to use? wayne: the problem is, i would wave my arms once, he could not figure it out.

that way, you have a big move. nobody wants to watch me say the same thing and a trip over myself 10 times. it only comes out right once. dan: you said ear great words you wrote, as you always do, every reporter starts today -- the day with a blank page. give folks watching a little insight into what your objective is as you figure out how to fill that page when you start a report. wayne: i don't know, honest to god. i have an idea of what i have shot and i have looked at everything and the soundbites, but i have a gift. my fingers are at the keys. i am amazed by what comes out. i don't know where it comes from. dan: do you have to get out of your way? wayne: i don't know. i think in journalism school there was a class where they taught deadline writing.

it was called the pit. we would have to write a story in 15 minutes, no matter what. dan: so stressful. wayne: i would just sit down and write. one thing connect to another, connects to another. if you get to the end, you may have to rewrite. dan: you said something so rich with wisdom. inside every little story is a big story and you managed to find it. wayne: that is true. but sometimes because the big story was not as big as we thought. i think we try to stay true to what we are covering, always, and be accurate, but there is always something in there that is interesting. what i was looking for, what we should look for, is a universal truth. it is hard to cover an area as large as this. if you were way down in south bay and something is happening in the north bay, but you have

to find a way to make them care. often times you do that by building a story around a person or event. and you make them feel something. it is a visceral medium. you can fact cram a story all you want, but people remember what they feel. i am trying to do a story where people get a lasting feeling they can carry with them. if you remember the feeling, you remember the facts. ama: make it connect, you connected with the viewers. that was so were markable, day in, dy out, you made that connection. dan: any urge to throw a monitor or tv out? ama: larry is hoping. wayne: that thing is an antique. dan: congratulations, wayne. ama: thank you, congratulations.

we thank you, we love you. all the best. dan: that is our report. we appreciate your time. far ama daetz, wayne friedman, all of us. thank you. you know when you're at ross, ooh! and the fall finds are everything? and those brands at those prices are everywhere? okay, yes! that's yes for less! bring on the fall looks you've been waiting for with the best bargains ever... ...at ross. yes for less!
