Following Muriel's death in 1939, Jack Ponsler gave the Oregon State Parks bureau a two-acre parcel of real estate on the north end of coastal Lane County, Oregon, stipulating that it be dedicated as a memorial to Muriel. The Muriel O. Ponsler Memorial Wayside continues to offer motorists a refreshing stopover with a picnic area and lovely ocean views.
