A few I don't see mentioned here:
Colleen Ogara (last name spelling is a guess; pronounciation is O-gair-a) - won $15,050 on Press Your Luck (4/13/1984), and would just about double that, at least, with another $15,000 on the premiere of the $100,000 Pyramid (9/9/1985, 5 from winning a 21-21 tie and 10 from the first Winner's Circle).
Greg Ross - was on Press Your Luck as one of several contestants steamrolled by Bob Brown at the end of 1984 (12/28/1984), but fared a little better on Classic Concentration, racking up $3,345 in prizes (5/27-28/1987)...before then being steamrolled by Marla Law, only the second champion to win 2 cars there.
Dean Mynard - was on Super Password in a VERY quick game (10/7/1985) that saw three words guessed in only about 10 minutes of timeslot time (that's counting two commercial breaks)...with him only coming up with $100. He'd fare much better on the $100,000 Pyramid, however, kicking off their Fall 1987 tournament period (9/14-16/1987) and making it into that tournament (11/2-5/87)...where he'd be one of two contestants steamrolled by Debbie Sepien, but not before he amassed a total of $12,800 and a Caribbean cruise.
Kim Oliver - immortalized in Press Your Luck intros, she had one of the earliest big wins there ($19,438 on 10/25/1983; her fateful Whammy coming the next day) and would then turn up on Super Password, where she didn't fare too badly either...staying longer, but winning a bit less money ($13,800 with at least 3 wins in a stay that covered 4/3-5 and 4/8/1985).

Here’s a family that appeared on both Dawson and Combs versions of Family Feud, the Warner Family.
They first appeared on a 1982-83 Syndicated episode:
Then, they came back for the CBS Daytime version with Ray Combs:
They would retire undefeated after 5 wins and come back for the Winner Take All tournament.

Roanne Burr: On The $25,000 Pyramid around Christmas-time 1982 (12/23, 12/24, 12/27) and Super Password in March 1985.
Won at least $10,600 on Pyramid (the 10 coming in a Christmas Eve tie) and at least $22,400 on Super Password. I...think, her Super Password run was also three days, 3/20-22. Only the 21st is posted as far as I know, but she began that day with 1600 and then won a $20,000 end game in an impressive 33 seconds, and carried on to the next day. 3/22 would be Friday and she's not on Monday, 3/25 (also posted).

Both of those ended up being her final money totals.
By coincidence, she was partnered with Vicki Lawrence on both games.

I recorded, earlier in July, the December 30, 1982 episode of "The Price is Right". After viewing the Time Capsule showcase on that show, one of the Showcase contestants on that episode was an African-American woman named Glynis. Was she the same Glynis who appeared on Eubanks' "Card Sharks" in March 1987?

Found Linda Ingstrom, the "PIG Lady" (Whittier, California) on the series finale of High Rollers: * Her husband, Richard, was a cop, so their motto was "Pride, Integrity, Guts" or "P.I.G.". So, she started collecting pigs. * She also has a pig named Richard, oddly enough.

He was also on "The $25,000 Pyramid" in May 1984 and won $10,000 with Michael J. Fox. His win was later seen as an opening clip, along with one featuring Melody Thomas Scott.
