Bubba
Forrest Gump was too busy saving everyone else. By the time he found his friend Bubba, he was too far gone.
When Forrest Gump gave Bubba's mother her son's share of the profits from the Bubba Gump Shrimp Company, she was overwhelmed with gratitude. She expressed her appreciation by thanking Forrest for honoring her son’s dream and legacy. This act not only highlighted the strong bond of friendship between Forrest and Bubba but also emphasized the importance of family and loyalty throughout the film.
