NOT BS — Verdict: True

The Short Version
The evidence strongly supports this account. Multiple reliable sources report that Geraldine “Gerry” Largay wrote a note dated August 6, 2013 asking that her husband George and daughter Kerry be notified when her body was found. Some reports differ on whether the note was on a torn journal page, notebook page, or book page, but that does not change the substance.
Caveats
The phrase “journal note” is slightly imprecise; some sources describe the message as written on a torn page rather than clearly as a formal journal entry.
Later uncertainty discussed in some commentary concerns other entries, not the well-documented August 6 note.
Several popular retellings paraphrase the note, so exact wording can vary even though the message and date are consistently reported.
