Warren J. "Pink" Ahlstrom passed away from natural causes in Logan, Utah, on Dec. 21, 2017, at the age of 94. He was born June 21, 1923, in St. John, Utah, to Elmer Hardin and Ethel Azalea Ahlstrom. He married Mary Lou Penney on Jan. 28, 1955, and was sealed for time and all eternity in the Salt Lake Temple in 1967. After her death in 1997, Warren married Irmgard Davis in August 2008.

While growing up in St. John, he enjoyed playing baseball, hunting and working on the family farm and other ranches. He always had horses and trained them to rein and travel well. Pink served in the Navy and then worked in the Civil Service Employment at Dugway Proving Ground. He retired after 32 years.

Pink had a passion for music and taught himself to play the mandolin. He has played it now for over 60 years. He encouraged each of his children to play instruments and they formed a family band, playing at various functions all over the state of Utah.
