 ===Origin/meaning===
-{{missing}}
+As common in US episcopal heraldry, the arms show the arms of the diocese impaled with the personal arms of the bishop.
+The two lions are taken from the arms of an Irish O'Carroll family and thus represent the family name of the bishop. The chalice is a symbol for priesthood. The cross within a circle refers to the National Catholic Welfare conference. The chequered bar is a reference to the [[Diocese of Pittsburgh]].
+The achievement is completed with the heraldic insignia of a prelate of the rank of bishop.
