Authorities arrested Fosnaugh on Saturday in Ohio.

When Kirill Pryshchepchuk learned Tovmash, his childhood friend, had been killed, he took to Facebook to tell her story.

"That's what I want others to know; that was not supposed to happen. That's not normal in this world," he told WRAL News.

Pryshchepchuk's mind went to their last conversation when she visited him in Philadelphia.

"She told me everything," he said. "She updated me on her life, and she was happy. That's what I knew. I knew that she was happy."

Tovmash fled the war in Ukraine a few years ago. Her parents and five younger siblings eventually followed.

Tovmash, who went by Kate in the U.S., played the piano, traveled and loved taking photographs. She also helped care for her youngest siblings, whom she was watching the morning she died.

"That's one thing that she always was doing, helping her mom," Pryshchepchuk said. "And even, I know in the church, or anywhere, if we had new babies, or new kids, she'd be like, 'Alright, give it to me. It's mine. I'm just gonna be with the kid.'

"And that's kind of what she was doing in the United States, babysitting a lot."

"She was killed in front of her little brother, who was 6 years old," Pryshchepchuk said.

The kids let Fosnaugh into the house, not knowing he was planning to shoot the couple, sources told WRAL News.

"It's just is not supposed to happen with anyone, especially to her. She was just, she was just a good person," Pryshchepchuk said.

Tovmash was a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Her father and brothers in Utah want to bury her there, and friends are helping raise money online to help transport her and pay for services.
