Abe died in a car accident on the road between Corsica and Harrison. He hit the abutment and died at the scene.

At the time of his death, the Harm Brink family did not yet have burial plots in the Harrison cemetery.

Abraham's aunt, (his father Harm's sister), Ann Brink Beukelman, and her husband Jim, offered to bury Abe in an area reserved for the Beukelman family. The offer was accepted. The limited finances of the day are reflected in his simple concrete headstone.

Family records record him as Abraham John Brink.
