Welcome to the group, and good for you for taking you and your family’s safety into your own hands. I’m sorry your son and wife had to experience that.
The video classes on the USCCA training site are actually pretty good, and can get you started on your training process. Classes are definitely a good idea, too. Draw and dry fire practice at home between range trips is free and keeps your skills up. You’ll probably find, the deeper you get into this, the more fun and interesting the whole firearm hobby will become. It’s a fantastic hobby, in that you can use your skills for protection as well as just straight up fun.
Finally, as a 40 year Western NY native (now in FL for the last 20), looking at your picture, I just have to say, good luck to your team! Go Bills 
My father in law is a die hard Miami fan, so that gets fun here.

It really is fun leaning more about guns. My wife doesn’t subscribe to just one more gun lol. I’m actually from the charlotte NC subs all my life and a Dolphins fans since I was a kid. I won’t hold the Bills thing against you. You’ve got a good father in law though

Thanks man! I agree, I do have a great father in law. He wears a Bills hat every time we beat the Dolphins. Come to think of it, that poor old hat is totally worn out, and I need to get him a new one…
Oh, and check with @Karacal for marriage advice and building the gun collection. He’s really good at that.

Ahhh, that’s just part of the stoic suffering Western New Yorkers endure. And snow.
Seriously, my brother has a coffee mug with the Bills logo that says “Please God, just once before I die”
