| An Inspirational CD created from the hope, strength, and courage of cancer survivors everywhere Combining the poetry of Dave Harm with the music of Kevin MacLeod |
The Purple Power CD
The New Age, Jazz, Blues, and Contemporary music of Kevin MacLeod combined with a dozen of Dave Harm's poems
on cancer create a unique gift for the survivor and their family.
Listen to Harm read his poem Day One to the tune Aitech. This is Dave Harm's favorite poem. He wrote it shortly
after his wife was diagnosed with breast cancer. It has the distinction of being the only poem ever shown on the front
page of the Beatrice Daily-Sun newspaper and it also appears in his book Damaged Merchandise. Or listen to him
read his most popular poem Relay For Survivors to the song Shades of Spring. This poem has been read throughout
Southeast Nebraska at different Relay For Life events, as well as parts of Canada. In 2006, it appeared in a
fund-raising book in Clio, Michigan.
12 original songs along with 12 poems written and read by Dave Harm, as well as his wife, Betty. The two other
readers are a child of a survivor and a young lady who has lost family members because of cancer. Ranging in age
from 17 to 50, the readers symbolically show that cancer doesn't care how young or old you are, or whether you are
a male or female. Every CD is shrink wrapped in a jewel case. Total playing time is 40 minutes.

A warm welcome for Purple Power... with an awesome review
On the 12th of January, Purple Power had its official unveiling at the kick-off for the Gage County Relay For Life event. Everyone seemed excited by the idea
and a few CDs found there way into new homes!
I recently received an e-mail from Corrine Koch of Beatrice, Nebraska who shared her thoughts after her first listening to the CD.
"I bought one of your Purple Power CDs on Saturday at the Relay kick off and just got done listening to it. What a beautiful CD!! My husband was
diagnosed with non-Hodgkins in Sept., 2001 and died in Oct., 2005. It was four years of fighting but sadly, God needed him more. When listening to
the CD it brought tears just thinking about all we went through also. The CD expresses the fears, hopes, emotions, etc., of all cancer patients and
their families. Thank you for putting all of them into words. The music added fit the emotion. What a beautiful combination. I hope the CDs will
sell, once people listen to it I can't imagine them not selling. I'm glad your wife is doing well and I pray that she continues to have good checkups."
All the publicity in the world, can't match a warm letter like this. It is because of people like Corrine, that the dream of Purple Power came to life.
I didn't mean for it to happen, but Purple Power fits in well with the 2008 Relay For Life theme.

- Celebrate - the CD is a celebration of life and the battles that many survivors continue to win.
- Remember - it's because of those whose fight is over, that we have a reason to celebrate. It was through their battle that doctors learned more.
- Fight Back - we celebrate the victories with the survivors lap and we remember those no longer here all through the night. And we will always fight back!
