As common in US episcopal heraldry, the arms show the arms of the diocese impaled with the personal arms of the bishop. | |||
Tee first arms of the bishop showed for the diocese a red cross with a rose. The cross is the symbol of Christianity and the rose refers to St. Mary's Cathedral in Covington. Above the cross he use a knot, based on the seal of Kentucky. The knot is a symbol for the two clasped hands in the seal. | |||
For his personal half he chose the arms of an Irish Mulloy family to symbolise his family name. He chose for a family that used arms with a black lion and three red trefoils. The chief symbolises his two patron saints, St. William of Bourges, symbolised by a chalice, and St. Theodore, symbolised by the cross (which is partially red to symbolise his martyrdom). | |||
After the diocese adopted new arms, the arms were adjusted. | |||
The achievement is completed with the heraldic insignia of a prelate of the rank of bishop. | |||
