Death
editHolm, who was known as Dorothy Parsons at the time, was found dead at her home in Oxford in July 1974.
An inquest heard that she died from asphyxia after inhaling vomit but, when recording an open verdict, coroner Dr Richard Whitehead suggested an irregular heartbeat or a sudden attack of epilepsy may have contributed to her death.[4]
