"Good-bye, dear friends! Not for the last time, not yet. Good-bye!"

- Gandalf before the Scouring of the Shire. He met them 3 years later again, at the Grey Havens, when the Ring-Bearers were passing on into the West. He would have stayed with Frodo until he died, met Sam much later, when he came, and never met Merry and Pippin ever again.
