Ok, wrong in some ways, but this did make me chuckle...just the idea that the shark in question decided to turn up for the memorial service!!!

Shark sighted near beachside memorial for victim of Port Kennedy shark attack

A shark has been reported swimming close to Perth's southern coast as a memorial service for a 51 year old shark victim was underway.

Fishermen spotted what they believed was a large shark just after 10am.

Swimmers at part of Port Kennedy beach, including a children's vacation swimming program, cleared the water and the shark spotter helicopter was sent to the area.

However, it has so far failed to find any trace of the shark.

The sighting comes as more than 250 people gathered at Port Kennedy beach to farewell local man Brian Guest who was killed by a shark at the beach ten days ago.

Mr Guest's body has not been found, despite a week long search.

His son Daniel Guest who was snorkelling with his father when he was taken says he wants him to be remembered as the fun loving man he was.

A diving flag has been placed in the water to mark the place where he was taken.
