The graduation section really doesn't have Mitch saying goodbye to Morrie. Mitch just narrates how Morrie's family says goodbye and how Morrie chooses to die alone when the others are in the kitchen. The actual goodbye happens in the section "The Fourteenth Tuesday We Say Good-bye" . There we get a very soft spoken and intimate farewell,

"I don’t know how to say good-bye. He patted my hand weakly, keeping it on his chest. “This … is how we say … good-bye …” He breathed softly, in and out, I could feel his ribcage rise and fall. Then he looked right at me. “Love … you,” he rasped. I love you, too, Coach"
