Then you didn't delete it. You moved it to another page or into a folder.

Go to your Spotlight search. (Swipe from left to right at your primary home screen.)

Type in 'Facebook'.

You should see your Facebook app.

Unless you held down an app icon until it 'wiggles', then hit the black 'x' to delete it, you didn't delete the app.

Thanks folks. I did actually delete the icon. I handy realized that I was holding my phone with my fingers on the screen and the icons were jiggling when I turned it over. I did somehow delete the icon. So, I found the solution on another page. I had to reset my home page to get it back.
