Thanks all for the valuable suggestions. So far this is what I have done:

1. Called electrician - which verified no issues with breaker box but no power at GFCI. He did not do anything else like what others have suggested in forum. Wish I knew about forum before calling in electrician.

Just to be absolutely certain, I'd open the panel and just double-check
at the outlet of that breaker for voltage and connections before I went
any further afield...

I've seen a similar situation (downstream outlets non-functional) that was
caused by a roofer nailing into romex that wasn't routed through the
center of the stud, but rather was too close to the exterior wall
with no nailing plate on the stud.

(Second floor; the roofer was nailing new flashing for a short bit
of roof over the garage door).
