Wanda Agee Albrecht, 69, of New Canton, died April 29, 2019 at her home. She was born April 13, 1950, in Buckingham County, a daughter of the late Bunny and Agnes Agee.
Wanda was a kind, loving person who was always ready with a smile, hug and warm welcome, whether she saw you on her mail route, at church or in a local store.

She was a rural mail carrier for over 10 years. Wanda had been a member of the Arvonia Unit of the Buckingham County Volunteer Rescue Squad. Wanda was an active member of the Buckingham Chamber of Commerce and had served on the Board of Directors.
She is survived by her loving husband of 20 years, Gary G. Albrecht; sons, Robby Elgin and Timmy Elgin; step-daughters, Amanda Williams, Elise Lanham and Tammy Gerken; brother, Robert Agee Jr. and numerous grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Special thanks to her caregivers, Celia Agee and Tammy Gerken and the staff of Centra Hospice.
