As common in US episcopal heraldry, the arms show the arms of the diocese impaled with the personal arms of the bishop. | |||
His arms are based on those of the [[Archdiocese of San Francisco]] (silver (white) with an embattled red chief) which His Excellency had the honor to serve for 24 years before being called to be an Auxiliary Bishop. | |||
Issuant from the base of the design, in black, is the silhouette of Mount Tamalpais, the iconic image of Marin County in California where Bishop Daly has ministered and served for all his priesthood, most recently as President of Marin Catholic High School. Above the image of the mountain is the monogram of the Blessed Virgin Mary, in blue, as it appears on the reverse side of the Miraculous Medal. In the use of this symbol, His Excellency expresses his deep and profound devotion to Mary, our Most Holy Mother, and his appreciation of St. Vincent de Paul, Bishop Daly's patron saint. | |||
On the embattled red chief is a gold diadem. In the use of this charge, Bishop Daly honors the heritage of his parents, Donald and Marian (Early) Daly, for it is as part of the Daly family coat of arms, that their motto expresses "Loyal to God and Crown," and that under the cross of this design, Bishop Daly expresses his loyalty to God, and in the crown, his loyalty to family. | |||
For his motto, Bishop Daly has selected the phrase "INTO YOUR HANDS LORD." The phrase, which is a paraphrase of Christ's last words on the cross, sums up Bishop Daly's deep conviction that it is in surrendering to the Will of God, that man is able to accomplish what is God's design for him. | |||
The achievement is completed with the heraldic insignia of a prelate of the rank of bishop by instruction of the Holy See, of March 1969, confirmed in March 2001. | |||
