Ah, I don't know. Gooey sentimentality works in certain places, doesn't it? Maybe easy enough to pare back with light, sparse sentences; retain the sentiment but minimise the goo.
I think that's absolutely on the money, though - endings need to linger, even if it's a matter of savouring the scene rather than sitting there wondering wtf just happened... in fact, savouring you want to revisit as a reader is way preferable (for me) to obscure walls of 'what if'.
