seeking information about burial for Sarah C Potorff Wheaton

WHEATON, POTORFF

Hello!
I'm looking for burial information for Sarah C. Potorff Wheaton.
I found this newspaper clipping: https://www.newspapers.com/newspage/566370262
from 13 Jun 1902 which says:
Death of Mrs. Sarah Wheaton.
Sarah Wheaton, aged 33, the wife of A. W. Wheaton, died yesterday morning at the Hazelwood farm. The remains were taken to the undertaking rooms of Smith and will be shipped tomorrow morning to Benton, Iowa, for Interment. Deceased was in the employ of the Hazelwood company. She leaves a husband,

I tried looking for a FindaGrave listing but can't find anything in Iowa that matches her name.
She was born in 1869 and this death was in 1902.
She married Alva Wilson Wheaton in 1887, and they had a total of 6 children, 3 of whom lived beyond 1900 - John Leonard, Virgie Mary, and Esther Adell.
I'm looking for her burial location which, according to that newspaper clipping, was likely in Benton Co, Iowa.
Thanks for any help anyone can provide.
