Well, if you must, Preferred Airparts in Kidron, Ohio would seem a likely possibility. They have their own private, corporate runway. KARR to OH22 is 308nm SE. But if you want to make sure that that data plate never again leaves the ground you would probably need a contractual commitment of same or they might very well just turn around and sell the aircraft as a flyable whole rather then dismantle it.
As to any perceived selfishness, I'm inclined to envision a distraught husband standing before a judge saying "Yes, Your Honor, I killed her. Even though I initiated the divorce I just couldn't stand the thought of her being with another man. So I had to do it."
I like the idea of a charitable donation. The aircraft gets to fly another day, you get a tax benefit and a worthwhile organization of your choice gets at least a financial benefit and possibly an aviation benefit as well.
I think most of us anthropomorphize our rides to some extent. I know mine gets a pat on the tail and a mumbled "thanks" following each successful return to terra firma making it hard to know what's the right thing to do. I'm confident that you'll choose wisely.
