0Angela Lee (Bergeron) Tate was born on March 3, 1989, in Yakima, WA, to parents Dana Sappenfield and Frank Bergeron. In 2000, her family moved to Frazee, MN, where she began making many of her lifelong friendships. Angela graduated from Frazee High School in 2007 and went on to earn her Bachelor’s degree in Social Work from the University of North Dakota in 2011. Angela married the love of her life, Dustin Tate, on September 2, 2016, in Detroit Lakes, MN. The pair were blessed with a son and a daughter, Dax and Della, who were her everything.
Angela lived her life always serving and caring about others, which shined through in her profession as a social worker with Becker County for nearly a decade, and also as an advocate with the Family Resource Center in Detroit Lakes. She had an ability to connect with others that made them feel significant, safe and cared for. Although she loved her work, her true passion and fulfilment came from being a wife and mom. She cherished her family and always beamed with pride at her children’s events or while out for a date with Dustin. Angela loved entertaining at their home, always thinking of creative get-togethers with family and friends, and never missing an opportunity to dress up for a theme and celebrate the little things in life. She also enjoyed traveling, bowling, making homemade sushi, raising chickens, gardening, taking her beloved dog Tunchi for walks, and she never shied away from a DIY home improvement project. She had more friends than could be named and always treated them as family.
In March of 2022, Angela was diagnosed with stage IV colon cancer. She persevered for nearly three years through the turbulence of treatments, medications and surgeries, always embodying her trust in “Faith over Fear”. Through it all, she maintained her quick wit, positive attitude, and a beautiful smile on her face.
On November 4, 2024, surrounded by her family and close friends, Angela peacefully drifted into the arms of her Savior. She will live on through her loving husband, Dustin, her sweet son, Dax, and her spirited daughter, Della.
Angela will be remembered by her dedicated husband, Dustin, of 8 years; children, Dax and Della; mother, Dana Sappenfield; brothers, Justin Bergeron and Stephen (April Beck) Bergeron; grandmother, Marylin Sappenfield; mother-in-law, Tammy Tate; father-in-law, Donald Tate; sister-in-law, Danika (Scotty) Jay; grandmother-in-law, Ardis Tollefson; nieces and nephews, Shaylee, Tate, Riley, Andrew, Alyssa, Aliyah, and Angela.
Angela was welcomed into Heaven by her father Frank Bergeron.
