Aarón Hernán served as Secretary of Internal and External Affairs and Treasury of the National Actors Association (ANDA) on several occasions and served as General Secretary from 1998 to 2002. In his last year of life, his children wanted to declare him legally incompetent to administer his assets, so he had to defend himself legally and moved to La Casa del Actor, ANDA's retirement home. There he had a fall that caused him to fracture his femur. Complications following surgery caused a lethal myocardial infarction.
