The two fleur-de-lys are taken from the arms of Pope [[Leo XIII]], as the father of the bishop was a ardent admirer of this pope and thus named his son after him. The tinctures of the bar and fleurs-de-lys are differenced by placing these devices in red on a silver field. Red has particular reference to the humanity of Our Lord; and as the liturgical color of charity is a most fitting color for barges associated with Leo XIII. The name Leo is further indicated by the appearance of a lion, a symbol ascribed to Saint Pope Leo I, the baptismal patron of the Bishop. Fleurs-de-lys also appear on the cross in the arms of the Archdiocese of St. Louis, where Bishop Steck was born and labored as a priest. | The two fleur-de-lys are taken from the arms of Pope [[Leo XIII]], as the father of the bishop was a ardent admirer of this pope and thus named his son after him.
