Check to see if the condenser fan at the back bottom of fridge is running.
Is the compressor motor near that fan running.
Are the coils warm ,cold or hot.

Is the evaporator fan in the freezer running. It blows cold air into the fridge side through a damper in the wall between the freezer and fridge. Make sure the damper is open.

Below the evaporator fan is the evaporator coils. Remove the back cover in the freezer to observe the frost pattern. stopped up? clear? ice in one spot . frost everywhere.

Thank you - I found in checking the air flow from freezer to fridge, that the top shelf was too high & food was blocking the damper - That was my first step upon your recommendations... It's been running great for a few days now - I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the problem has been solved!
Thanks again, Mr. Woodchuck!!
