   The Marinette County Sheriff's Office says James Bosanny was driving the ATV with his 64-year-old son James Bosanny Jr. on board about 3:50 p.m. Saturday when he lost control on a small hill after striking a plow before the vehicle accelerated and struck a tree.
 
   The elder Bosanny died at the scene. His son was hospitalized with serious injuries.
 
   The sheriff's office says neither was wearing a helmet.
 
   The crash remains under investigation.
