Symbolism
Arms
Red, which expresses energy and combat, represents the training and kickboxing that Mr. Rowland did in his youth. Black, the colour of mourning, recalls the loss of his grandfather and his own physical injuries. Gold, symbolizing wealth and generosity, represents Mr. Rowland’s philanthropy as well as his guidance in helping many people to achieve their goals. The squirrels embody forethought and nimbleness.
Crest
The fir cone alludes to a fir tree, which is a symbol of the patience Mr. Rowland has exhibited while achieving his long-term goals. Hoisted high, as a winner would do with a trophy, it embodies achieving success over a long period. The forepaws refer to the squirrels in the Arms.
