Former Anchorage resident Clarence C. "Scotty" Tate, 70, died of heart failure July 18 at St. Luke's Regional Medical Center in Boise, Idaho. A funeral was held at Demaray's Gooding Chapel in Gooding, Idaho. Burial followed at Elmwood Cemetery.

Mr. Tate was born Jan. 13, 1923, in Kimberly, Idaho, the son of Ernest and Lou Vernia Savage Tate. He attended school in Kimberly and Gooding. During World War II, he served with the U.S. Army in the South Pacific. After the war, he became a chef and worked at various restaurants on the West Coast and in Las Vegas as an executive chef. In 1965, he moved to Alaska, where he worked as an executive chef in Fairbanks, Juneau and Anchorage, for hospitals and government agencies. He later managed food service camps for the trans-Alaskan pipeline. He married Phyllis Staats Hill in Reno, Nev., on Dec. 21, 1969. From 1977 to 1985, he served as president and business manager of the Culinary Union in Anchorage. In 1985, he returned to Gooding to retire and enjoy hunting and fishing. He was an active member of Ducks Unlimited, Pheasants Forever and Gooding Elks Lodge #1745, and held memberships in various culinary societies. During winter months, he enjoyed feeding bread to the ducks and geese in the Hagerman Valley and lived his life to the fullest, according to his family.

Mr. Tate is survived by his wife, Phyllis of Gooding; a son, Michael of Anchorage; two stepsons, Dennis Hill of Everett, Wash., and Hugh Hill of Fort Huachuca, Ariz.; a sister and brother-in-law, Eloise and Lum Edwards of Gooding; two brothers, Raymond of Sun City, Ariz., and Dennis and his wife, Blanche, of Missoula, Mont.; and five grandchildren, Melissa of Anchorage, and Jason, Justin, Eric and Kristi Hill of Fort Huachuca.
