parting words
Final spoken sendoff
Parting words are final remarks spoken when leaving or separating from someone.
They may be casual farewells or weighted with significance—last advice, expressions of love, or memorable statements: His parting words were "Don't forget to call your mother".
The phrase often implies these words carry special meaning precisely because they're final.
