Between the fleurs-de-lys is a Latin cross reversed to commemorate the first appoint ment of Bishop Steck as an assistant pastor of St. Peter's parish in Kirkwood. From this time on until. The Bishop later served as chaplain at the mother-house of the Sisters of "St. Mary of the Angels," and since 1943 he has been pastor of the parish of "St. Gabriel the Archangel." To commemorate the Holy Angels and Our Lady as their Queen, the bar bears a golden Celestial Crown in honor of the Queen of Heaven, between two pairs of angel's wings in silver for the heavenly hosts, and particularly, St. Gabriel. The stars on the crown indicate the name of St. Mary as Stella Maris (star of the sea). | Between the fleurs-de-lys is a Latin cross reversed to commemorate the first appoint ment of Bishop Steck as an assistant pastor of St. Peter's parish in Kirkwood.
