Bishop Arthur Serratelli, installed as head of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Paterson a year ago, put his personal stamp on his administration yesterday by replacing two longtime top church officials.

Naming a new vicar general, the highest-ranking diocese position after bishop, Serratelli replaced Monsignor Herbert Tillyer, a 31-year veteran administrator, with Monsignor James Mahoney, pastor of Corpus Christi Parish in Chatham.

Serratelli also replaced Monsignor John Hart, who had been chancellor of the diocese since 1998, with Sister Mary Edward Spohrer, the provincial of the North American Eastern Province of the Sisters of Christian Charity.
