I worked with Terry on the old I.P.D. Charles sector.  Good cop, nice guy. Memory like an elephant.  He could remember someone's social security number for ages. Rest in peace my friend!

It was written: Finding your soul begins by discovering your ability. I've always seen that not everyone wants to be a leader or at the least in charge of anything. The ones that don't usually find alternate ways of showing they care and share in what is the order of a day.

For those who accept the challenges of leadership and/or supervision, many get things done by sharing a smile, a laugh and just by being human to everyone. From personal observation of Terry's interactions with others, I feel comfortable placing him as such a leader.

First and foremost, Terry was a fellow who gave 35 of his years in this life to the City of Indianapolis Police Departments in one of the most caring and sharing of ways. He shared his abilities as a law enforcement officer as a leader and supervisor of those he was charged with guiding through the department's calls for service.

Terry did so regardless of the complaints thrown upon LEOs in society, less alone with the dangers posed by staying on the job well beyond a time he could have retired and moved on in his life, with his wife, Rainelle, and other family and friends.

It is certain, friends, colleagues, family, and even strangers Terry interacted with on and off the job - including those who were not from the LEO environment - will now find a deeper void in their being due to his passing.

For our fellow gone ahead we offer the following prayer: Eternal rest, grant unto Terry Lynn Eden, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.
