Origin/meaning
As common in US episcopal heraldry, the arms show the arms of the diocese impaled with the personal arms of the bishop.
The personal arms show in the upper half the hands of the Order of Friars Minor Capuchin, to which the archbishop belonged.
The lower half contains two silver mountains, the suni or taro plant and a river of a field of blue. One mountain stands for paternal ancestors of the Archbishop from the Illocos Sur region of the Philippines and the other for his maternal ancestors from the high islands of the Marianas.
The achievement is completed with the heraldic insignia of a prelate of the rank of archbishop.
