Locked iPad

Without the Apple ID and Password of the original owner, you will not be able to use the device. Your lovely neighbor must remember her Apple ID. If not, can she produce the original receipt which apple will require to help you. Check these links...

Activation Lock for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support

Here are the Apple support pages that outline the Activation Lock - and the only mechanisms by which it can be turned off:

As you will discover, unless you are the owner of the AppleID that was last used to activate the device, or unless you can secure the cooperation of the previous owner, you’ll not be able to defeat or bypass the Activation Lock. Without documentary evidence that you are the original owner (such as sales receipt showing the serial number), Apple won’t assist - and nobody here will be able to help you.
