In Loving Memory of Hilary D. Brink
Mooers, New York
It is with heavy hearts and deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Hilary D. Brink, aged 40, of Mooers, New York, who departed this life peacefully on April 21, 2025, at the CVPH Medical Center. Hilary’s untimely departure leaves a profound void in the hearts of those who knew and loved them.
Hilary was a beloved member of the Mooers community, known for their infectious laughter, boundless compassion, and unwavering dedication to those they held dear. Above all else, Hilary cherished their role as a devoted parent to their daughter, Brooklyn, who was the light of their life and the center of their world. The bond between them was a testament to Hilary’s nurturing spirit and unconditional love.
Family and friends were the cornerstone of Hilary’s life. Whether gathered around a campfire, enjoying quiet moments at home, or spending time on shared adventures, Hilary found joy in connection and togetherness. They had a special way of making everyone feel welcome, valued, and heard. Those closest to Hilary will remember their heartfelt conversations, warm hugs, and the way their smile could brighten the darkest of days.
Hilary’s creative spirit found expression in hobbies they were deeply passionate about. An avid crocheter, they spent countless hours crafting blankets, scarves, and keepsakes for loved ones — each stitch woven with care and love. Camping brought them peace and renewal, offering a chance to reconnect with nature and build memories with Brooklyn and their circle of family and friends. These simple pleasures reflected the essence of who Hilary was: grounded, giving, and full of life.
Though Hilary’s physical presence is no longer with us, their legacy lives on in the countless lives they touched. The Mooers community joins together in mourning this tremendous loss while also celebrating the indelible mark Hilary left on the world. Their warmth, generosity, and vibrant soul will never be forgotten.
As we grieve, we also remember. We remember the laughter, the shared stories, the quiet support, and the joyous moments. We hold onto the memories that keep Hilary’s spirit alive in our hearts, drawing strength from the love they so freely gave.
Hilary D. Brink was a beacon of light to all who knew them — a devoted parent, a treasured friend, a kind neighbor, and a soul that brought beauty into the everyday. May their memory be a blessing, and may we honor their life by living with the same grace, passion, and love that Hilary embodied.
