A family friend and music executive, Mykesha Robinson, whose daughter Faith had been Fiona’s best friend at Palisades Charter Elementary School, told the Daily Mail about the impact on the family. The two girls had met on the first day of school and were inseparable until they lost touch after graduating from elementary school.
