You should specify the shell on the 1st line of the script.
Also it's not wise to put scripts directly into /etc/rc3.d
you are better off putting a chkconfig compatable script into /etc/rc.d/init.d and using chkconfig to create the required sym links
Try this scrip, save it as /etc/rc.d/init.d/stnotify
Then use chkconfig --add stnotify to install your script (it will create symbolic links for the start and stop version of the script at the required run levels).
Note the same script could be enhanced to notify you if the system is restarted, shutdown or put into single user mode.

service(8) System Manager's Manual service(8)NAME
service - run a System V init script
SYNOPSIS
service SCRIPT COMMAND [OPTIONS]
service --status-all
service --help | -h | --version
DESCRIPTION
service runs a System V init script in as predictable an environment as possible, removing most environment variables and with the current
working directory set to /.
The SCRIPT parameter specifies a System V init script, located in /etc/init.d/SCRIPT. The supported values of COMMAND depend on the
invoked script. service passes COMMAND and OPTIONS to the init script unmodified. All scripts should support at least the start and stop
commands. As a special case, if COMMAND is --full-restart, the script is run twice, first with the stop command, then with the start com-
mand.
service --status-all runs all init scripts, in alphabetical order, with the status command.
EXIT CODES
service calls the init script and returns the status returned by it.
FILES
/etc/init.d
The directory containing System V init scripts.
ENVIRONMENT
LANG, TERM
The only environment variables passed to the init scripts.
SEE ALSO
/etc/init.d/skeleton,
update-rc.d(8),
init(8),
invoke-rc.d(8).
