Thread Name: Suggestions for a farewell song?
Subject: RE: Suggestions for a farewell song?
An old Southern parting hymn, used at many "final" services, not just funerals:

God Be With You Till We Meet Again

(It's probably too "churchy" for your occasion, but the tune is very familiar in the South.)

I would prefer Beethovan's Ode to Joy played slowly! The perfect "going out" song.
