Design Rationale:

The design of these arms are based on the family history of the armiger. The three escallop shells simultaneously represent the Holy Trinity, the three nations of citizenship enjoyed by the armiger's father during his lifetime, and the armiger's family's proximity to the sea over generations. The paschal lamb represents the armiger's faith in Jesus Christ as the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world. The Bahamian conch shell and palm fronds represent the armiger's Bahamian heritage as well as his love for the ocean.
