    I set-up some Facebook pages years ago. From what I remember there is no ID and password for the page as such.

    The way a page is administrated is associated with whomever has the "Admin" role. That person will just have admin access to the page through their FB login.

    It's possible to set up multiple Admins on a page (and it is recommended), in case one becomes "unavailable".

    If your friend is still on FB, then I'd suggest Messenger-ing them and ask to be made Admin.

    If they shut down their FB account, then it's likely the page is gone too. You could set-up a new one instead.
