good evening am i'm grace lee. a denver marine killed in afghanistan is being remembered tonight at his alma mater. friends and family are gathering at the soccer field at san ramon valley high school where his family says 19-year- old joshua is at home. the memorial is going to get underway in about an hour from now. don? >> that's right, grace. it does seem appropriate the memorial for joshua corral would be held here at san ramon high school on the day of their big game. afterall, he went to school here and he competed here on the athletic field. 19-year-old lance corporal joshua corral, chachy to his friends was the 2010 graduate. he was killed in afghanistan a little more than a week ago. there have been games on this athletic field all day. san ramon valley's so-called turkey bowl for youth football. after the games, a memorial for

corral will be held here. his old brother wanted it here outdoors under the stars. >> he played sports on the field. the family has chosen after our event to have a tribute with the towns folks coming to pay their respects. >> reporter: earlier this week, the street where corral lived was jammed with friends and neighbors after his family returned from delaware where they received his body. >> he's very young. he wasn't even old enough to go get a beer. >> friends say he was a born leader. his enlisting in january prompted ten friends to do the same. >> he was my best friend, my brother. he was the type of person who would always have your back. even if he asked you not to, he would be there for you. >> he was literally the strongest person you would have ever met. i mean it was impossible to even imagine that something like this could happen. >> during each of the four youth football games of the turkey bowl, there have been memorials and a booth to raise money for the corral family. they sold cookies.

>> awesome. not only have people been buying cookies but they've been donating extra funds for the family. there has been an outpouring like we really didn't even expect it has been awesome. >> reporter: the memorial comes of course on thanksgiving break. a time when many of corral's former classmates here are now in college and coming home for the break. there will be about 1500 people tonight here grace. >> has to be a tough time for the family and that community. don knapp in danville. thank you. the holiday shopping season got off to a strong start on black friday. initial estimates released show sales are up 7% over last year. but the black friday figures with retailers offering huge discounts don't necessarily reflect what the seasonal figures will be. the national retail federation is only expecting a modest 2.8% increase, even with an extra saturday for shopping. >> the official numbers don't come out until tomorrow. anecdotally, it is very good. more people lined up at macy's

in new york than ever before but a cbs poll said four in ten americans say they're going to spend less this year than they did last year. when they get in the store and see the sales, they may act differently. that's not a great sign. >> online sales are growing but only make up about 10% of all sales. retailers still need to get the shoppers into the stores. online shopping has been growing every year, however and this year, cyber monday could be the biggest shopping day of the year. both thanksgiving and black friday, online sales soared up 39% on friday. 24% on friday. that's compared to last year. this year, retailers are offering deep discounts and free shipping and trying to attract online shoppers on cyber monday. phaopg the biggest sellers this year, mobile phones and tablet computers. the lines, the crowds, the craziness of black friday at the big box stores, well, that's over. today is the day for shoppers to show their appreciation for the small, the unique and the

local. ann mackovic went shopping on small business saturday. >> it is a big day for small business. usually you can tell how the year is going to be, you know, next year is going to be, based on christmas. >> don't expect the flashy 50% off signs or other deep discounts you might see at the big box stores here at morning glory boutique. >> we typically don't which i know sounds crazy. >> the shop in downtown burlingame doesn't have to resort to sales. >> most of our clientele are boutique-based so they're not the type to want to go out and get these crazy discounts. >> reporter: and today dubbed small business saturday two years ago is a time for shoppers thinking small to show their support. even president obama pitched in taking his daughters to a bookstore a few blocks from the white house. and there are some distinct advantages. >> to be in a small boutique shop than in a large department

store. sometimes that gets a little overwhelming. >> reporter: but it is not all about competition with big retail chains. in fact, the storeowners that we spoke with say the arrival of this big brand helps foot traffic along the entire corridor. >> just have to get them in the door. >> just have to come inside and try a little bit. that's all. >> come ol eva opened and they're still struggling but hopeful customers will recognize the value. >> we compete because we are different. we bring fresh. people come here and taste it first. >> what's god for one of the shops is usually good for them all leaving hope for the start of a strong holiday shopping season. >> this year has actually been booming. it is much better. >> in burlingame, ann mackovic, cbs 5. falling temperatures will be a major obstacle for the occupiers. since they're antibig retailers, demonstrators are making their own winter wear. it is called a knit-in for the sit-in.

a group of occupiers in berkeley are busy knitting scarves and hats and mittens. they'll send them as part of care packages to occupiers in new york city. knitter sass i this is one way for those who cannot camp out to help out. >> people saying all the way they can be part of resisting the greed of our government and the banks that are consolidating all of -- and mostly finding good ways to be together with other people. >> berkeley occupiers are also taking donations of warm clothes as well. on to the bay area headlines, the berkeley building that was destroyed in a fire last week will be torn down. the five story apartment and retail building on hayes street was red tagged after the five alarm fire tore through it. the owner will begin demolition on monday. nearby buildings and roads will be partially closed until that structure is brought down. cleanup continues today in

south san francisco. this is where an accidental urban geyser sent mud and water flowing into homes, huge mess there. the water main break happened yesterday shooting up plumes 60 feet into the air. more than a dozen homes were flooded. today, the san francisco public utilities commission told us repairs are expected to begin next week. one more hurdle to cross and bars could be rolling into san jose. the valley transportation authority is expected to approve a $700 million contract for the construction. all the project needs now is $900 million from the federal government. that decision is expected early next year. the goal is to extend tracks through downtown to the san jose airport by 2016. exhausted but back in familiar territory, the first of three american students arrested in egypt is home tonight. what his plans are for tomorrow. and paying tribute to their sons and daughters in the military who will not be home for the holiday.

how they'll be kept in the hearts of everyone on this biggest symbol of christmas. >> a bit of a warm-up today around the bay. we'll look for the trend to continue through tomorrow even as the dense early morning fog burns off. we'll look at partly cloudy skies but the dry and mild weekend by tomorrow afternoon. details coming up next. ,,,,,,,,
