Stephen Michael Koller
CLINTON – Stephen M. Koller- Steve passed away unexpectedly at home with his son Stephen and brother Richard by his side on April 26, 2025. He was born in Bridgeport, Connecticut, on Nov. 12, 1969, to Charles and Janet (Collins) Koller. The family moved to Maine and settled in Clinton in 1983. Steve attended Lawrence high school where he graduated, class of 1987.
After graduating high school Steve worked a few different jobs before establishing his career at Power’s Auto Center in Clinton. There he worked as a very skilled mechanic working on anything that rolled into the garage. There wasn’t anything that Steve couldn’t fix. Susan and Mike Power’s started as employers but became more like family throughout his 27 years there.
Steve was always a family man and enjoyed sharing the stories of holidays at his grandparent’s house in Connecticut as well as the family in Maine. Steve’s hobbies were gardening, playing his guitar, working out, cooking, and spending time with his family; especially his son Stephen and wife Monica and their son, his first grandson, Jonathan. Stephen was his pride and very best friend. He was always beyond proud of him and his accomplishments. His proudest moment was when he found out and got to meet his grandson Jonathan. He let it be known just how proud he was to earn the title “Grandpa”.
Steve is survived by his son Stephen Koller and wife Monica of Clinton; mother of his son and friend, Bonnie Koller and stepson Richard Dyer of Unity; brother Richard Koller of Clinton; sister Sandra McCausland and husband Craig of Vassalboro; niece Courtney Koller; nephew Dylan McCausland and wife Keana; nephew Chase McCausland and his grandson Jonathan Koller; and several close friends he kept in touch with over the years.
Steve was predeceased by his parents and grandparents.
There will be a private celebration of life announced by the family at a later date. There will be no visitation or funeral services.
Services are in the care of Veilleux- Redington-Lawry Brothers 8 Elm Street, Waterville, Maine. An online guestbook may be signed and memories shared at http://www.vrlfuneralhome.com.
