File Share Witness Resouces Errors in a SQL 2012 Alwayson Availability Group Environment

Hi I am getting the following error in WFC Manager and in my system event log:

Event ID1564: 

File share witness resource 'File Share Witness' failed to arbitrate for the file share '\\SQL2012ClusterWitnessPath'. Please ensure that file share '\\SQL2012ClusterWitnessPath' exists and is accessible by the cluster.

Event ID 1069: 

Cluster resource 'File Share Witness' of type 'File Share Witness' in clustered role 'Cluster Group' failed.

Based on the failure policies for the resource and role, the cluster service may try to bring the resource online on this node or move the group to another node of the cluster and then restart it.  Check the resource and group state using Failover Cluster Manager or the Get-ClusterResource Windows PowerShell cmdlet.

Event ID 1205:

The Cluster service failed to bring clustered service or application 'Cluster Group' completely online or offline. One or more resources may be in a failed state. This may impact the availability of the clustered service or application.

These errors showed up every hour on the hour and then suddenly stopped.  I tried looking at the cluster.log file but there wasn't anything recorded there.  The file share witness shows to be online and my AG did not fail over to another node.  The cluster has read and write permissions to the share.  I did not find any error messages about the witness share on the remote server. 

I am wondering what caused these series of events to occur?

Thanks.
