i was shocked to learn of the death of ahna capri. Her role of tania in enter the dragon was most memorable. This making her the 3rd featured star of that movie thats passed away. (Along with bruce lee, shih kien) she was a beautiful woman and a talented versatile performer. She will sadly be missed. X adam pearson.
