Daniel Conner Mauser
 Born June 25, 1983
15 years old
Daniel Mauser was a sophomore who excelled in math and science, and got straight 'A's on his last report card. His dad remembered his son as a smart young man who wasn't afraid of challenges and who wasn't ashamed to hug his parents. He was shy but he didn't let that stop him from joining the debate team and though he wasn't a natural athlete, he still joined the cross-country team. He liked to ski, camp and recently returned from a two-week trip to Paris with the French club.
Daniel volunteered at the Swedish Hospital, he was preparing for Confirmation at St. Frances Cabrini Church, and was hoping to get his driver's license the next year. He was concerned with gun safety in America and his father, Tom Mauser, is an active protester of the NRA and continues to campaign for stricter gun laws in the wake of his son's brutal death.
Daniel was in the library when he was shot in the face by Eric Harris while hiding under one of the tables.
His funeral was held jointly with Kelly Fleming's at St. Frances Cabrini Catholic Church. He was buried in Mount Olivet Cemetery.
