Resolved, merge switch was off while parked and engine batteries were drained by few things pulling power.
Slowly charged both batteries separately, per battery mfg with 110v portable charger...when they got back to 12v, I reconnected them and put merge switch in on position...I left it in that state until I had batteries back up to full charge.
I turned off merge switch and the coach started easily.
Issue resolved, like many things on the coach...regularly checking the many systems is advised. Plus keep your merge switch on while parked, or have another method of keeping charge going to engine batteries to maintain them if parked for a period of time.
