Workers at the Henry Ford Belmont Nursing Home always knew where to go when the wheelchair with the Pistons blanket was missing from the dining room.
It meant Will Robinson was attempting another escape. Robinson never liked to sit still. He didn’t like it as a youngster growing up in North Carolina and Ohio, and he didn’t like it up until the time he died Sunday night at age 96 in Henry Ford Hospital following a long illness.
“This is not the place you want to be,” he said recently, inside the nursing home. “But I’ve led a full life.”
